Story Notes
Some reprint information and synopsis added by Craig Delich (Jan. 14, 2007). Mary Marvel next appears in Wow Comics #9. P. C. Hamerlinck, in Alter Ego #147 (July 2017), asserts that Swayze did the entire art job on this story. So reference to Swayze doing the art on the Mary Marvel figures only has been removed.
