About the series
A short-lived but visually distinctive series from Australia's Magazine Management, Jumbo (1975–1978) ran for just six oversized issues, blending reprints of classic American newspaper strips with original local content. Best known for its striking, often surreal covers by artist Paul Power, the series offered a quirky mix of adventure, humor, and fantasy that captured the eclectic energy of mid-1970s Australian comics publishing. Though brief, it remains a notable artifact of the era's attempt to bridge imported and homegrown material.
