A better quality scan of issue #6 c/o friend of the blog David McDonald
My previous post about Zoo post elicited this response from Arkholt on the comicshriphistory reddit...he pointed out that issue 2 of Zoo contains The Duplex - a strip which only began in April 1993 (see Wikipedia entry here) so therefore Zoo must, at least, have started after April 1993.
On sale dates for issues 2-4 have been provided by the comment from Velocity in the comments below this post. These all show a gap of 28 days between issues. The on sale dates for issues 1, 5 & 6 have been calculated using this methodology.
Hi Richard, I have #1 #2 and #3, each issue tells the readers/subscribers when the next one is coming out. I can give you the dates I have so far. Only question is that the publication date of #1 is uncertain. But everything came out in 1994 that’s for sure.
