The Comics Journal #66 (1981) delivers sharp, varied commentary from a stellar lineup of writers including Carter Scholz, Richard Morrissey, Dale Luciano, R. C. Harvey, and others, with Fred Hembeck providing the artwork and Bill Anderson handling inks. Luciano celebrates classic Carl Barks stories in Uncle Scrooge and Walt Disney's Comics & Stories, as well as Herge’s Tintin and standout issues of Psycho Comics and Honkytonk Sue, while Morrissey offers mixed takes on the Superman/Spider-Man team-up and a Superman novel. Harvey takes aim at Arak Son of Thunder and its Warlord preview, all set in a 1981 landscape shaped by Dennis Fujitake’s distinctive cover art.
