Operation: Decoy (a colon was added on the title page) was released in 1983 by Marvel Books under license from Hasbro. Called a “Marvel Super-Size Coloring Book," this massive softcover measures 17" x 22".
An alternate version of Operation: Decoy was released with a comic-book-style cover, seen here on YoJoe. The title page credits David Anthony Craft, Gary Brodsky and Brian Moore. Although not credited, the cover was painted by Earl Norem. His signature can be seen in the lower right corner.
