Gamut - Issue 4 (1978) - The "Lost Issue of Gamut"
Sheridan College Cartooning Program alumnus Michael McDonnell recently confirmed the existence of a 1978 issue of Gamut. Until now, a 1978 issue was only speculation, and the 1979 issue featuring a Bernie Wrightson cover was thought to be the fourth and final issue. With the confirmation of the 1978 issue - what I'm calling the "Lost Issue of Gamut" - the 1979 issue is now the fifth and final issue of the series.
