I have to wonder what caused the huge gap in between issue #3 (Spring 1943) and issue #4 (Fall 1948)... That's five and a half years! Yet Sheena maintained her monthly cover appearances in every issue of JUMBO Comics in that same gap -- so what happened? JUMBO was selling with Sheena as the cover-featured star, but SHEENA (in her own self-titled comic book) wasn't?? That just sounds too crazy to be likely.

Good question. Paper was rationed in World War 2, so maybe Fiction House couldn't get a big enough allotment of paper to publish Sheena in 1944-1945. Or maybe there was a limit on the number of Fiction House titles they could get distributors to carry?

The wartime paper restrictions and rationing caused most of the big comic book publishers to cut down the page size of their bigger books, cut down the number of titles they published, cut down the frequency of issuing given series, to condense from 3 horizontal tiers to 4, and from 2 vertical to 3, and to "buy" unused paper allotment from publishers of any genre, or even other types of magazines and even hardbound books, as was done by ACG, Better/Nedor, Lev Gleason, Jerry Iger, Bernard Bailey, having prestige hardbound book publishers like Cambridge House, La Salle Publishing, Wm. H. Wise, Rural Home Assoc., and other never before and never again comic book publishers "publish" comic books under their names (when the comic book publishers listed above. For that reason, I am sure that Sheena (like a lot of other publishers monthlies or bi-monthlies were changed to bi-monthlies and quarterlies, respectively, to keep the series from shutting down all the way until the end of The War.
