I got this issue of AVENGERS from my comic book reading pal Donald Sims, the first person I knew besides myself who really cared about comic books (and who made his own, just as I did.)

Here's another forgotten, fannish collection, a story that was serialized across three issues of the long-running fanzine The ROCKET'S BLAST COMICOLLECTOR.

This was another issue of AVENGERS that I dug out of my drug store's Big Bin of Slightly Older Comics one day, the oldest issue I had yet had an opportunity to read.
