    • Anthony Tollin is credited as series editor and publisher, no explicit editor for this volume is given.
    • Will Murray is the series consulting editor.
    • Joseph Wrzos is this book's copy editor.
    • Michael Piper is the restorer of the original pulp cover.
    • The front cover is a reprint of the front cover of the December 1935 issue of Doc Savage Magazine.
    • No artist is credited with the stories, but Edd Cartier and Albert Micale have signed their work, and Paul Orban, Edd Cartier & Albert Micale are given a group credit on the contents page.
    • The Fantastic Island has additional generic spot illustrations on pages 6, 7, 8, 10, 19, 20, 23 and 40. These seem to be stock character portraits that would float from one Doc Savage novel to another. This novel also guest-stars Doc Savage's cousin Pat Savage, who is seen on the cover with Doc.
    • The Fantastic Island is credited to W. Ryerson Johnson and Lester Dent on the contents page.
    • Danger Lies East is credited to Lester Dent on the contents page.
    • The Majii reprints four pieces of art from the novel, with a one-paragraph synopsisis for each panel. It is an ad for the novel, but functions almost like a one-page graphic story. Art by Orban?
