When I recently reread the Captain Action series, it was pages like this one that made me think Wally (alone or with his soon-to-be partner, Gil Kane) would have been the perfect artist(s) to tackle one of the Superman books.

One of my all time favorite Gil Kane pages.

The first issue was all Wally Wood’s work, Kane started in the second issue.

You are correct.  I owned this page for many years, and I always listed it on CAF as being 100% Wood's work.

My friend you have this listed as penciled by Gil Kane and inked by Wood.

No, actually,  I no longer have it listed on CAF at all.  I bought the page in early 1970 for $10 at the Dineyland Con from a dealer from Nebraska.  I sold it in the 1990s, and I have not identified it as mine since that time. This is not a part of my CAF gallery but that of COMICART B, the present owner of the page.  Even if I hadn'i known for decades that Wood penciled and inked Captain Action No. 1, which I personally bought new off the rack at the Thrifty Drug Store on Magnolia in Buena Park, CA on the evening that Nixon beat Humphrey in Nov. 1968 (I heard the results on the car radio after I had finished buying comics at the store), I have certainly been able to distinguish between Kane's pencils inked by Wood from Wood inked by Wood for more than 50 years.  But I don't object to your calling me "friend," even though I've never even heard of you before today.
