Brilliant covers!

It's a testament to Spidey's popularity that he's had a presence in the UK for so long. I think the UK Spider-Man comic ran until around 1984 and then in the mid-80s, I recall a Spider-Man and Zoids comic.

Then, in the early 90s, you had Marvel UK publishing The Complete Spider-Man and then The Exploits of Spider-Man before Astonishing Spider-Man, now in it's third volume, made it's debut in 1995.

Has a Marvel character ever had more staying power in the UK than Spidey?
