Alas, I must start with sad news about Justin E. A. Busch:
Hi George,
This is Erin, Justin’s partner. Sadly, he has been in a state of decline since his cancer came back, and he is not currenty capable of writing. In all likelihood, there won’t be any other Fanfaronades.
There’s some more here: https://www.caringbridge.org/visit/justin.busch
Please feel free to forward the news. I am checking his email periodically and people can also contact me directly if need be
Sorry to be the bearer of sad news,
Erin

The sercon article is very interesting, being about Fawcett Publications beyond superhero comics.  The author, Jon D. Swartz,  puts to focus their limited runs and one-offs, such as Destination Moon, When Worlds Collide and Captain Video.
