Set Description:

Australian reprint editions of some US Sci-Fi themed comics.

The Australian reprint editions do not have as many issues as the US counterpart, and there are a lot of inconsistencies with the numbering of the Australian Editions in relation to the original US version.

OUTER SPACE. Only 4 Australian Editions : AUST #1 = US #17; AUST #4 = US #19
NB Outer Space #3 (Aust.) cover image does not match any US edition and as such cannot be listed here.

BLUE BOLT. Only 4 Australian Editions : AUST #1 = US #109; AUST #2 = US #110; AUST #3 = US #107

JOURNEY INTO UNKNOWN WORLDS. Only 6 Australian Editions : AUST #1 = US #2; AUST #4 = US #6

STRANGE ADVENTURES. Only 43 Australian Editions : AUST #1 = US #44; AUST #2 = US #43 with the rest having US #'s in the 40's -70's. Some issues have covers from House of Mystery or Mystery in Space.

PLANET COMICS. Only 24 Australian Editions : AUST #1 = US #60; AUST #2 = US #55

Although the comics front title page may look similar to its US original, there are often varying degrees of differences. Almost ALL Australian Editions are B/W inside.

More AUST. editions of STRANGE ADVENTURES to be graded in 2024. Probably 10 -15 issues.

I will get graded some Australian Editions of PLANET COMICS in the near future.
