I've not read DARK FANTASTIC, though Steve Lewis includes it
on his checklist of their collaborations. Bill Miller died in
1961, and DF was published in 1959, so the team did produce
it. (According to Bob Wase, the Whit Masterson pseudonym was
used as a combination of the letters in both their names.)
Bob Wade continued to write and publish using the same name
into the 1970s. Some of those plots are inventive and unusual
-- great reading fun.
