New Comics Now was an Italian series published by Comic Art Editions from 1980 to 1998.

Issue overview

The series featured reprints of daily and Sundays strips of American comics, such as Mandrake the Magician and The Phantom amongst various other classical comics. These intensive reprinting, trying to respect chronological publishing but often with an erratic order of issues, is of a specific interest for comics collectors. What may appear confusing with this series is the fact that some publication dates do not follow the numbering order. Furthermore, some issues were sold out and then reprinted with a new publishing date.
