Note on artwork for "The Perfect Invasion": Pre-verification data entered here stated that art credit to Bok for "The Perfect Invasion" was taken from information in Hannes Bok: A Life in Illustration." The credit on the first page of the story states "Illustrations by Dolgov." The first illustration (page 5) is signed thus, but the other two are unsigned. It is assumed for now that these latter two are by Bok, not Dolgov.
