Was ACTION COMICS monthly all the way from '38-'88? Because #600 hit the Direct Market in '88, so it couldn't have missed more than 12 months in 50 years (unless there was some less-then-monthly period as well, obviously). --------------------------------------- There were 4 80 Page Giant Action Comics during the 60s (meaning Action was biweekly during those months), which put it 4 issues ahead of a regular monthly numbering. There was a 'skip month' sometime in the Spring of 72, IIRC, to put the entire DC line on track, which put Action back to 3 months ahead. What they did, I think, was bump the cover date ahead by a month, which resulted in missing a May or June issue, yet the title shipped as normal. The next skip occured when JBs Man of Steel mini was on sale over three months, which put it back on track... until the weekly series occured.
