Indication of the release date

This issue was released without a publishing date on the cover or inside, but is likely released autumn 1958.

The L. Miller triangle

When the son (Arnold Miller) left his fathers company in 1959 Leonard Miller changed the company name from "L. Miller & Son" to "L. Miller & Co".

The 291 issues (from the week ending March 14, 1959) of "Marvelman" and "Young Marvelman" both have "L. Miller & Son" and the 294 issues (from the week ending April 4, 1959) have "L. Miller & Co".

One can also see the triangle changes from Son to Co at other series like "Kid Montana" (issues 55 vs 56), "Maverick Marshal" (issues 51 vs 52) and "Front-Line Combat" (2 vs 3), to name a few others.

Other Comic Books

This issue has an ad for a 68 pages issue with "The Phantom", coming next month.
