Now updated with a much better image for the cover to issue #2 (and I've now completed my Iznogoud comic collection, yay!)
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 Jean Tabary. 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. Cover images can be found here

Goscinny wrote the stories but didn’t do the art. That was by Jean Tabary.
