I don't really see a lot of Dick Dillin in this piece, aside from the kid's leisure suit.

Not that I can recall. I have seen some of it. He was overpowering at times. Whether that was intentional or not, I'm not sure.

Neal inked Curt Swan for this issue of Action. I can still make out the "Swanisms" in this one.

I thought Adams inked some of Kirby's Jimmy Olsen covers....

Appears so. I just checked Neal's site and he has scans of most of the covers:

I see tons of Dillin and Swan in those covers.

Those are classic Dillin poses, and that kid is a stock Dillin kid.

The alien design is also classic Dillin. Variations of that alien design popped up in JLA year after year.

The kid having on a leisure suit was a classic Dillin trademark. (Well, anyone wearing a leisure suit, really.) I think he drew from his personal wardrobe.
