Fantastic work there, makes the spreadsheet sadly redundant mind...

But still, well done, great stuff!

Hope not. A spreadsheet offers easy search and display of results.
I made the webpage list more for finding individual articles quickly eg. What issue was The Wizard making of?

Does anyone know the exact date of release for Issue 19?

Cheated a little, just typed "Free Issue 1" instead. :D

Should I keep this list updated each Issue or leave it at a nice even 100?

I'd say keep updating, as people often ask which issue something was in.

(and it will stop the "you have Manic Miner in every issue" complaints)

A good excuse to coin the phrase "Manic Moaner"

Good work on the contents listing though!

Issue 101 has a great cover so I'll keep updating! :D

Manic Miner has been in 4 issues and Jet Set Willy in 5 issues.
