<ModNote>Using Goodreads for this entry, it was not possible to add regular titles for the three contributors mentioned in the Pub Note. Also, the Goodreads description states: "And read interviews with Irv Novick, Dick Ayers, Rich Buckler, Bill DuBay, Steve Englehart, Jim Valentino, Jimmy Palmiotti, Kelly Jones, Michael Uslan, and others who chronicled the Mighty Crusaders’ exploits from the 1940s to today!" It is not clear if these are presented as interview transcripts and therefore should be listed under interviews (with their respective interviewers’ names) or that only quotes or excerpts from interviews were used.
I’ve added this record to provide a linked work reviewed in <i>Tightbeam</i>, May 2018 (http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/pl.cgi?864682). I’ve ticked the book as "non-genre" since it is essentially comic book history (though it is possible that some of the comic book characters discussed have also appeared in non-graphic works).</ModNote>
