The Peacemaker #6 was never published. The Action-Hero line folded, its architect Dick Giordano move on over to DC, and Charlton returned to its focus on genre comics like ghosts, romance, and war.
But the Peacemaker story for issue #6 was written by Joe Gill and fully illustrated by Pat Boyette with Dick Giordano credited as editor. And those completed pages have been floating around the internet for several years. Here are those pages. Enjoy the "final" issue of Peacemaker.
And that wraps up the Peacemaker saga as it might've been at Charlton Comics. That we have this story in any form is a real treat. The artwork by Boyette looks especially crisp and you can really detect where the presses at Charlton somewhat muddied his work.
These reports have been a real joy to put together. They make me really read the stories closely with a real attention to detail. I'll have some comments to make on DC's handling of the character soon.
