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