What an utterly sublime page! This is exactly the kind of Gene Colan Daredevil I love so much. Four big beautiful panels of joyfull superhero nonsense, which can be equally well enjoyed by someone who appreciates great drawing without having a clue about the Marvel Universe or the story. A raygun-armed Catman and a surley Gorillaman argue about who gets to whomp the hero while DollasDollasDollas float everywhere (look at the posing on the hand holding the gun!); a jaunty gut punch delivered with a Devilish wisecrack and a smidgen of thoughtful exposition; a Kat-KO punch as only Colan drew 'em; an acrobatic dodge of a Birdboy blast, 30 years before Neo did it in the Matrix. I love every bit of it!
This is a terrific issue with tons of great action - Gene Colan at his best! Tartaglione isn't the tightest Colan embellisher but this is solid work. I think after all these years this fine page deserves a better scan, if you ever find the time. And if you ever think of unloading this page, give me a shout.

Many thanks, Kevin. Although the Ani-Men were the original creation by the late great Wally Wood way back in DD #10, Gene really knocked this issue with them out of the park, as you correctly point out!
