It's in the 1982 Warlord annual, titled simply "Samurai".

That makes sense.

Can the two Jackpot Comic Annuals from World Distributors be added to the Annuals list?

"Man in Black" is "Striker from Nowhere" from Crunch. Issues 20 09/06/1979 to 34 08/09/1979.
"Goal-Goal-Goal" is "It's Goals that Count" from Hotspur 1008 10/02/1979 to 1019 28/04/1979.

Same here col. Hopefully, someone will be able to solve the mystery of his identity.

I beleive that the artist of "The Boxer Nobody Knows" was Juan Giralt.

Sorry Nikos, I'm afraid I have to disagree with you. It doesn't look like Giralt to me.

"Giants Killer" was from Victor and titled "The Boxer Nobody Knows". It ran in issues 745 31/05/1975 to 750 05/07/1975. Unfortunately I don't have a name for the artist. "Mister Roly-Poly" again from Victor, ran in issues 517 16/01/1971 to 526 20/03/1971. The artist, as has already been mentioned be...

The Partners ran in Roy of the Rovers from 22nd August 1987 to 16th April 1988.

Lew was right, it is a remake of Wizards "Slave of the Ring". It appeared in Victor, issues 953 26/05/1979 to 973 13/10/1979 with art, as Kashgar said, by Keith Shone.

"Superman for 5 Minutes" is "5 Minute Superman" from Bullet, issues 102 21/01/1978 to 107 25/02/1978 and "Robot Manager" is "Steelman's Eleven" from Victor issues 882 14/01/1978 to 893 01/04/1978. The skateboarding one I'm not sure about but could it be "Skate Mates" from Whizzer and Chips which ran...

Hi Phil, "The Legend" same title again is by Maidagan but is not a Thomson strip. It's from Roy of the Rovers and ran from 26/01/1985 to 10/08/1985. The second strip I don't think is by Thomson's either. Is it "Whizz Wheels" from Whizzer and Chips?

Not Eric Bradbury but Frederico Maidagan and all, I think, from Victor. I say think because one I just can't place but I'm pretty sure is from Victor. The two I can identify are "Sid's Shadow" same title from issues 1146 05/02/1983 to 1160 14/05/1983 and "Informal" which was "The Brain Behind the Ra...

Your right about "The Haunted Ship" being from Look and Learn Phil, and funnily enough, it was also reprinted in an Action Annual, the 1982 one.

I would say they are one and the same, Ramirez.
