Issue 3

Issue 3 is when the Wizzo Comic gets a major revamp, some characters are removed whereas more popular characters stay.

Re-release[]

Issue 3 origionaly only had 5 copies printed before it had to be cancelled. Issue 4 was about to be released on-line, when it was decided that Issue 3 should be re-released instead, as only 5 copies where printed. The sedccond release had some minor tweaks, mostly colour changes, notably the letter lives advert was replaced with The Wee Musketeer, and an advert was placed on the back cover. The price went up to £2.50, due to the professional printing company used.
