Mandrake featured on the cover of the first issue (July 30th, 1942) of the third Afacan series, until issue 27 were Mandrake was shifted onto the b&w interior pages. About this time the paper and printing quality deteriorated due to the WWII situation. Mandrake is missing in issue 37 and with issue 39 Afacan began to print Mandrake in a traced form.
