Cliff Merritt Sets the Record Straight

Cliff Merritt Sets the Record Straight is a one-shot comic published in 1969 by the United Transportation Union, featuring artwork by the celebrated duo Al Williamson and Angelo Torres. The issue follows the title character, a railroad worker, as he corrects misconceptions about the industry and advocates for union solidarity. Though a single publication, it stands as a distinctive example of labor-oriented comics from the late 1960s, showcasing the talents of two masters of the medium in an unexpected, advocacy-driven context.
