UPDATED: Cookie - Clearmark comics

I've looked at some comics published by 'Clearmark comics' in the past...

Popular fairy tales here
Were Bears here
The world of Wym here
Tom and Jerry here 
Rupert here

They also published Cookie - the fortnightly for pre-school for children. Issue 1 was definitely published but I'm unsure about issue 2 - any clues welcomed. You'll see that the contents include Henry's Catthe family NessPound puppies and more

Now updated with an actual cover image for issue #8. 

Looking at old issues of Denis Gifford's ACE newsletter also reveals the following...
ACE for September '90 says that issue 12 (cover dated 9th August) will be the first monthly issue (and that the price has gone up to 80p)

ACE for Oct / November '90 says that issue 13 (cover dated 9th September) has a free badge

ACE for Jan/Feb 1991 says that issue 13 (cover dated 6th September) was the last issue.

So, some slight confusion about the cover date of issue 13 (the correct date would seem to be 6th September as that's 28 days after the 9th August issue but we shall see) but it's the last issue whatever the cover date.

ACE for September 1990 also records the publication of a holiday special.
