That's weird. Your issue is Sept 95 but my issue 4 of the Episode Guide is 1996 (no month) and covers episodes 24-31?

Does that mean there was a bumper issue 5 that covered episodes 32-60?

:? :?:

Edit - there is a next issue page which indicates the following one would be on sale in June!

The contents are pretty ropey so I don't think it can be a reprint from the Marvel series

Digi - I can't see where to go to on http://www.rangercrew.com but if you can point me in the right direction I'll contribute over there as well
It's this thread, labelled Power Rangers Comic List. It actually lists the comics for the other Saban toku shows as well (Masked Rider, Beetleborgs and VR Troopers), but mostly US ones, due to the UK covers simply being hard to find on the net. http://www.rangercrew.com/forum/showthr ... ist/page20

I now have issue #6 of the VR Troopers 3D comic (not to be confused with the Marvel UK produced VR Troopers comic which came out at the same time).

Still don't know if #6 was the last issue or not.

Any help still welcome.

You mean a later issue of the one from the first post?

The Marvel series was in the US, not UK, and combined with Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Unless Marvel UK did a reprint of it?

Yep - "VR Troopers - 3d comic" (published by Phoenix Press) lasted until at least issue 6
