The comic featured writer-editor Goodwin displaying his cartoonist abilities; Adams and a fledgling Larry Hama sharing vertically split pages to parallel a street prostitute with a corporate secretary using sex to further her career; and Wood's story \"My Word\", a bitter parody of the Al Feldstein-scripted \"My World\" that Wood illustrated in EC Comics' Weird Science #22 (Dec. 1953). Linda Fite and John Verpoorten handled production work for the comic, released with an indicia date of September 1975."@en . . . . . . "Big Apple Productions"@en . "Big Apple Comix"@en . . . . .
