Back cover
All in all then, 5 issues of which 2 were originated British material and 3 were straight reprint issues. And it only lasted 5 issues. So, not a great success all round then, but it's an interesting footnote in Fleetway's line of tie-in comics. Fortunately for them Sonic the comic was proving to be much more successful.
