Notes[]
This issue was the first themed issue for Warren, featuring stories based off the cover painting. Although the cover says all seven stories are based on the cover, only the final six are. The story Avenger failed to be finished in time for publication, resulting in the story Forgotten Flesh being published in its place. Avenger would later be printed in Eerie 128 in 1982. The story Only Losers Win is titled Speedway on both the contents page and the back cover. The lead character from the final story, Hard John Apple, would later have a three part spinoff story appear in Eerie 83 through Eerie 85. Archie Goodwin resigned as editor following this issue. Howard Chaykin made his first Warren appearance with this issue, while Tom Sutton made his last.
