Iznogoud comic - 1996

An oddity from 1996 then...it's the Iznogoud comic. For more details of Iznogoud why not checkout his wikipedia entry here?
Art is by Goscinny (the man who drew Asterix - and much else besides). This was just a 3 issue run and is hard to get hold of.

Phoneix Press? Not come across them before - they printed at least one other title - Phantom 2040 - as well as a VR Troopers 3D comic but not sure what else. If you have any ideas, just let me know. 

Phantom 2040 was a 4 issue mini-series printed (in the USA) in 1995 and re-imagined the legendary Phantom character (created by Lee Falk) in, I'm guessing, the year 2040.
