Air Ace Series 2: The Ron Phillips Reprints

Post by colcool007 »

Folks, I am after some help from the collective. I have noticed that there is not a full list of the titles for the second series of Air Ace anywhere, so I am hoping to create such a thing and get it hosted where all us comic fans can find it.

We only need titles for issues 3, 6, 7, 10, 18, 22, 36, 38, 40, 41, 44, 45, 47, 48, 52 and 56. I am hoping that with all of us having such diverse collections, we would be able to put this list together.

Thanks in advance.

Really struggling with this. I've spent an hour trawling the web to come up with.......nothing! Can you message me the titles you already have please as I've found a few images but I can't read the numbers.
There's not a lot of these 30p 1986 comics around!

Could you provide a cover scan so we know exactly what we are looking for? They might appear in ads in comics of the time. Mid eighties?

OK, here is issue 54

We are looking at adverts from the end of 1984 until February 1986 as that was the print run for this series of Air Ace.

Thanks for looking anyway Steve. OK after a wee bit more work, I am down to 11 titles to find and they are issues 6, 7, 10, 18, 22, 38, 40, 41, 44, 45 and 52. They are turning up in all sorts of places. Ebay in the UK and Australia, but the strangest has to be the Polish version of Gumtree!
