• Retribution: Part II - Previous "Hero for Hire" writer Steve Englehart is credited as "Camp Counselor." Tony Isabella blogged on July, 5, 2013: "'Hero for Hire' #15 was running incredibly late when I was asked to script the issue?s truncated 11-page Luke Cage story. ... Roy Thomas asked me to write Hero for Hire #15 and #16. He knew I was a fan of both Luke Cage and Englehart?s writing and I knew I would have killer deadlines on both issues. When I took the job, I was given the penciled pages for issue #15. I received no plot or script, but I?m pretty sure there were some brief border notes on the pages. I?m also pretty sure I was told Billy plotted this story. I can?t recall why I (or anyone else) credited him as the co-scripter. He should?ve been credited as plotter or co-plotter. In either case, I received nothing by Englehart before I scripted these pages. I didn?t even talk to him about the story. He might not have even been in New York at the time." http://tonyisabella.blogspot.com/2013/07/hero-for-hire-15-16.html
