1001 Roman Özel Özel Sayı is an Turkish magazine that published Mandrake from 1940 to the 1946.
History
Between 1940-46, Türkiye Yayınevi published monthly "special issues" of 1001 Roman alongside the weekly comics magazine of the same title. Unlike the tabloid-format weekly magazine, these issues were smaller in size and each issue headlined a complete adventure of one comics character. Mandrake was featured in eight of these monthly issues, beginning with #1 (Jan. 1940).
The first three issues of the "special issue" series included a shorter, second comics story of a different character alonside the main featured character and Mandrake was featured in this way in #2 (Feb. 1940), which was a Lone Ranger issue, as well. Titled as Haydutlar kralına karşı, this filler comics is the first-ever Mandrake adventure in the Sunday newspapers, but the five-pages long Turkish edition reprints the end only.
