Earl,
There is another HC titled "Odkin - Son Of Odkin", a second issue of Heroes Inc., 13 total issues of Witzend, and Wood also published 4 issues of Sally Forth and 4 issues of Cannon. There was also The Wallace Wood Portfolio, The Woodwork Gazette and perhaps some other one shots along the way. For a nearly complete bibliography of WW's output I highly recommend the Wallace Wood Checklist which was published by Two Morrows Publishing in tandem with the great "Against The Grain: Mad Artist Wallace Wood" edited by Bhob Stewart in 2003.
WESTPORTALBOOKS ARE SQUINKY BOOKS!

| Thanks I forgot about Sally Forth. According to my notes Wood only published the first 4 issues of Witzend after which the series was continued by 'The Wondeful Publishing company', Heroes Inc 2 was published by CPL. Earl.
