   Very cool – Kirby/Ditko, you say? Did Ditko do the inking (the man in the suit looks very Ditko-esque, he didn’t by chance do any of the pencils)?

   Ditko inked the cover. He also drew the interior cover story, a rather unusual 13-page monster story for him (I can’t think of any other non-superhero story he did for Marvel from the period that was more than six pages). Now that I think about it, I wonder if the story was meant to have Kirby pencils and given to Ditko when Kirby was too busy.

   Bob,

   I’m pretty sure the cover inks are by Dick Ayers,not Ditko.

   You sure on that, Nick? I was getting a lot of Ditko from Haag and the human, but a lot of Ayers from the ray gun, and deferred to the Kirby checklist update on it in the end. I’ll have to take a closer look comparing it to other covers of the era.
