The Transformers Comic Book Index - U.K.
Late 1989 (issues # 229-251) Previous page Return to index page Next page

Note: From issue # 213 and onwards the UK comic featured two Transformers stories in each issue, one in full colour reprinting stories from the American comic book or earlier UK stories (5-6 pages per issue), and one exclusive British story in black & white (5-6 pages). To illustrate this the left text column below holds the information for the "main" story, while the right text column holds the credits for the "backup" story. The horizontal bars show were one story ends and another starts.

Footnote: It's difficult to illustrate in the table, but on this unique occasion, in issue # 232, there were three Transformers stories in the comic book. I assume that both Resurrection part 4 and King Con part 1 (to the left) were in colour, but I haven't been able to get it confirmed.
