I think the publisher does not need changing, right now it is: Viking, owned by Edizioni Hobbi.

Other electronic magazines do the same thing, for example 16/48 is the publisher of 16/48 Tape Magazine, from Magnetic Magazines Ltd, owned by Argus Press PLC.

I agree about the title, I'll post in bugfixes.

Please let me point out that "Viking - Adventures in italiano" is the full title of the magazine, and the magazine is owned by "Hobby Edizioni S.r.l.",
just like e.g "Crash" is owned by "Newsfield Publications Ltd".

I see there is other stuff that needs fixing in the series, e.g the "Inlay" picture for issue 1 is the magazine cover, not the tape inlay.

The adventures of Bonaventura di Bello almost need a full time researcher/updater themselves as there are so many of them... I don't think we've scratched the surface of them over at CASA; and I think we've given up on trying to match the Explorer and Viking games. A very prolific publisher, author and all-round renaissance man.

I remember filling a sheet, maybe last year or a couple of years ago.
I'll be glad to recap after finishing the Load'n'Run series.
