Thunder Agents #14
T.h.u.n.d.e.r. Agents v1 #14, 1967 - In the city's artsy village district, Dynamo and the superhuman Andor battle for supremacy. Amid the destruction, the script is curiously light-hearted and full of puns. Steve Ditko's pencils and Wally Wood's inks work together seamlessly, regardless of tone. Among the highlights: Dynamo breaks through several floors of a building, creating a naturally vertical sequence for the reader (page 8). Other artists in this silver age comic include Ogden Whitney, John Giunta and Gil Kane. Cover by Kane. This is 14 of 18 Thunder Agents issues by Wood and 3 of 6 Thunder Agents issues by Ditko. /// Wood gallery

Its possible that Wood provided layouts for the Ditko story. In looking over many Tower stories the layouts follow a particular style, such as verticle panels that are similar to Wood solo stories. These layouts occur on artists as diverse as Dick Ayers and Paul Reinman.

That's entirely possible. As I understand it, he was the editor and artistic director at Tower, and created most of its characters. Jack Kirby provided hundreds of layouts for Marvel in the early 1960s so it's not unprecedented. Wood is one of the great ones, though in my opinion his strengths lie in his draftsmanship rather than his compositions.
