Comment:	The original incomplete (fifty page) scan seems to have been done by Gregsaundersfan-DCP in 2004, with missing pages added by an unknown scanner in 2005, along with an nfo file saying "The original scans of this issue were missing two centerfolds. I scanned the missing pages and rescanned the front cover only. I'm sending the entire book to reposts." There might or might have not been a third scanner, since the original scan seems to also have been missing the last two pages of the Midnight/Spirit story.
