Good catch, ROK! I figured Joe Giella for the inker, but I came up dry on Mike's site. focused on Quality titles that had gone over to DC.

Kinda got lucky on this one. Mike's site is broken down into ages. So I looked at the list of titles in the Atom Age group and then searched titles that had some kind of movie or tv connection which is sometimes the case with titles that are published by more than one company. Never did recognize the artists.

I pursued a similar tack. After exhausting Quality titles, I moved onto licensed or extra-territorial DC franchise books, like Hopalong. But unlike ROK I jumped over the the correct cover in my bleary eyed scanning. Good work ROK!
