ReplyDeleteYikes! Turn in your proofreading badge, Jack Abel!
ReplyDeleteFor some reason, when I was reading John/Jack's credits in comics as a kid, I assumed he was an old guy. Maybe just the name sounded like he'd be a contemporary of Abel. I didn't realize he was a young(ish) guy (at the time).
ReplyDeleteMe too, PJ! I'm glad to have done some research and correct my misconception — I thought he was one of the old guard that was around in the 1960s, but he tisn't!
