Notes
- "The Day the World Melted", the lead Knights of the Galaxy story, is reprinted in Justice League of America #91.
- The second story seems in line with Superboy Vol 2 24 where Captain Comet has a comic book; there is no other explanation to how Jimmy knows the hero.
- Cowboy on Mars infers that there is a race of humans on Mars living in 1952, and that they have a society heavily focused on livestock farming.
