Format
Format
The current format is 76 pages, with three stories being printed every issue. Whilst it usually prints more modern story lines, 'classic' tales are also used as back-up strips. The inside front cover of the comic contains a message from the editor as well as a 'Story So Far' section to allow lapsed readers to catch up. At the back of the comic is a letter's page (Web-Mail) whereby readers can write in and give their views and opinions on the stories. The letters page also previously included short comic strips entitled 'Mini-Marvels', initially reprints of Chris Giarrusso's & Lew Stringer's work. A subscription is also available.
