Note: Starting with issue # 213 and continuing until issue # 289 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 table once again changes format below. The left text column 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.
