There were plans to include a few companions for Stuntman: A kid companion & a female companion.

Bill Black & Dan Reed did do a retelling of one of his tales in 'Fun Comics' #2 (1981): www.comics.org/details.lasso?id=315109

AC was not the only company doing reprints of Stuntman: Pure Imagination did a Stuntman reprint in 1998's 'Complete Jack Kirby' #3!

Thanks. I do recall hearing about a possible sidekick that could have been added but wasn't, but since it didn't happen I didn't mention it. If there were definite plans, tho, maybe I should.

I should also mention Pure Imagination, but somehow avoided running across it in gathering info. I'll look into addint it.

Quack, Don

P.S.
Looks like you've latched onto a way to make this less-than-bright software do usable links. Just leave the "http:" off. I checked that one out, and was instantly struck by how similar the cover is to a Kirby promotional drawing of Stuntman. I didn't look closely enough to see how different it undoubtedly is, but it does seem odd for Black to get full credit for it in the GCD.

Quack, Don

The main reason Harvey reprinted Stuntman in 'Thrills of Tomorrow' was that TOT was a former horror book that needed cleaner content to suvive!
