How long did the comic run for?
The monthly series, aimed at younger readers and published in the UK by Panini, began with an issue dated 21 May 2003. It was released four-weekly, with the cover date being the last day an edition is on sale before the new one arrives. Each comic contained all-new strip material, but the series failed to take off, despite a number of old Marvel hands being onboard, and a variety of outlandish free gifts. It would end with issue 9, dated December 31st 2003. Further issues were in different stages of completion when Panini pulled the plug, but whether these will ever see the light of day remains to be seen.
