Notes:
- Print-on-demand facsimile reprinting of the original G-8 WWI air war novel with some speculative elements from the January 1938 issue of the pulp magazine of the same name. The lead pulp novel is listed in the magazine as by G-8 as told to Robert J. Hogan.
- This is a 105 page reprint of the one-hundred and twelve page edition includes the non-speculative air-war short stories "Death Pays Off" (p 78) by uncredited, "Bombs for the Bride" (p 85) as by Greaseball Joe, and "Flight of the Double Cross (p 96) by uncredited. All three are by an uncredited Hogan.
- All G-8 facsimile reprints in this series from Adventure House are reprinted in order of their original publication.
- "G-8 Speaks" is a letter section, and it usually opens with a short introductory essay by G-8 (Robert J. Hogan) and then goes on to print some G-8 fan letters.
- The original pulp had 112 pages, this facsimile only contains 105 pages of the original pulp. It is unknown if the missing pages were ads or features.
- Reprints volume 13, number 4, whole number 52.
- All illustrations, including those of the non-genre stories, are by John Fleming Gould, although he is uncredited in this facsimile.
- Contains many spot illustrations and character portraits that are either filler and drift from one issue to another, or are cropped from the larger full-page illustrations, these are not listed.
- Back cover reprints a detail from the cover from two earlier issues of the G-8 pulps.
- The original G-8 and His Battle Aces pulp magazine was published by Popular Publications, now Argosy Communications.
- The editor in this issue's "Statement of Ownership" lists Harry Steegar as the editor. However, Galactic Central sites Edythe Seims as the actual editor. This edited facsimile version of the pulp is presumably edited by John P. Gunnison, the publisher of Adventure House.
- Listed as a collection as all the material within is written by Robert J. Hogan.
