Story Notes

Here, also, Webb indications are probably the result of shop mimics. A great appreciator of ships, it's likely that Webb drew these or that they were lifted from those he'd rendered in earlier episodes.

"Off the dark coast of Italy... We'll have..."

Story Notes

Some effort is made early on to mimic Mort Leav, but it is soon abandoned. Signs of Blum and Webb probably indicate shop mimics. Albright seems to be the most obvious contributor.

"Space is breached and time rolled back by..."

"From a grim prison cell, the scheming..."

"The black market! This is the latest menace..."

Story Notes

Very awkward pencils with wildly disproportioned figures and horse - one more indication that it is unlikely that Blum was drawing the horses. He usually had shop specialists assist on his animal art.

"Gloria and Dale...song and dance team...follow..."

Credits
Story Notes

The inkers are still attempting to mimic Bob Hebberd. A shop artist [Cassone or ?] is drawing the girl.

Shrouds of Ice

"Fields stood on a quiet corner in the darkness."

Story Notes

The house name 'Tom Alexander' was used on occasion for stories by both Ruth Roche and Toni Blum.
