Notes
- Openers prints a duplicate of an entire letter from the previous issue, in which Christopher Toynbee of Romford, Essex can't find The Transformers issues on shelves and the editor responds advertising the comic's subscription service. The sole alteration made for this issue is to change the page number of the subscription slip as mentioned in the answer.
