I have been on the Zoidstar site reading Marvel Uk's old Zoid comics and enjoying what I have read I had special 1 and 3 years ago so this site brings back memories. Anyone know where I can get back issues of the Zoids title?

I'm not sure if there was a dedicated Zoids title, but I remember there was a joint title with Spiderman. I definitely had a Zoids annual as a kid though which I highly recommend if you can pick up a copy. Pretty dark stuff, I seem to recall, pretty violent. Written by Grant Morrison, I believe, which goes some way to explain that

I always thought it was a strange choice to partner Spider-man with Zoids, the Zoids story line & artwork stood out as a qaulity strip in it's own right, maybe Marvel didn't think it would last very long as a stand alone title?

Just to clarify, I have all of the Zoids scans online at my other site

Hmmm, badly in need of an overhaul!

I was so gutted as a kid when Zoids Monthly was axed before release. It would have been amazing.
I'm just thankful I managed to track down those 12 unreleased pages.
