Which are often sold on ebay separately.

Then Battle Action Force itself, which ran from 08/10/83 to 29/11/86.

There are also three BAF annuals and three BAF summer specials.

For Marvel UK, therewere 50 weekly issues, 15 monthlies, 5 annuals and 5 specials. The title changed from Action Force to GI Joe - The Action Force to GI Joe. The GI Joe specials are very rare, very expensive and only contain US reprints! Here's the complete cover gallery:
