I'll review. -- Zanimum (talk) 22:02, 1 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Passing lead.

Publication history and contents

That table is helpful in eliminating what could be awkward prose.

I'm not sure that the start of the sentence "In the event, only five issues appeared" is clear. I get what you're trying to say, but I don't think that sounds natural. Is it "In any event"? I'd look for something different entirely.
Since only two stories/authors are discussed in the Challis/Mann sentence, I've removed the semi-colon... I love that punctuation mark, but here, it seemed like overkill.

Bibliographic details

The only mention of the title in this section is missing a space after "A."

Passing Footnotes, References. It's always cool having an article that you 100% don't have to run through Checklinks. It's a rare treat to have an article sourced entirely from printed sources.

The image license information seems a little bit brief, but I do appreciate the search for copyright renewals, so I'll let it pass. -- Zanimum (talk) 22:18, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed both the issues you raised, and I agree that the semi-colon was an error. I do sometimes use online sources but for these old magazines most of the sources are dead-tree. Thanks for the review. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 23:10, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
