Glub! by Vaughn Bode

First is how this appeared inside the (what many consider) greatest fanzine of all time,  Squa Tront #4, then how it appeared on the umpteenth printing of the underground, Junkwaffel #2.  Coupla things: I personally don't think of ST4 as the greatest fanzine (although it is stored in my short box of ALL the greatest fanzines), and this latter printing of Junkwaffel 2 isn't cause I'm indifferent (it is, after all, how we first saw Cobalt 60), but all the printings of Junkwaffel look the same to me, so I kept the cheapest versions and sold the first printings I originally got at the head shops

Comic Picture Lover's #5 Fanzine by Neal Adams and Berni Wrightson

I know, I know, that's not what CPL stands for (I keep asking what IDK stands for, but nobody has a clue).  And furthermore, what's so contemporary if Wrightson's centerfold is dated 3 years earlier?  Second Doc Savage is from a fanzine, just not this one
