Cool!! From one of the recent Ebay listings? Thanks for sharing!! I forgot that 'Stan' is short for 'Stanley'. When I first read it I thought 'Stan Lee' as a sound alike name :wink: !

I don't know if Stan uses it much any more, but that is how he is listed in the index of the fanzine.

The "Sutan" listed on wikipedia is the pronunciation of スタン, which is how you write "Stan" in Japanese.
