Crash, there WAS another issue following #4 (Space Comics #5), which I was ready to upload, but I see that it is already up on CB+!

And QQ, Peter Rabbits story in Space Comics Issue #5 DOES have him going into Outer Space, in a Spaceship (Rocketship) he was testing for a rocket manufacturer trying to get a contract with The US Space programme. There is also a story in Avons regular Peter Rabbit series that has Peter and his girlfriend, Dazy, taking a trip to another planet in the Spaceship Peter is currently testing.  Maybe the space story wasnt ready for the print deadline on Issue #4, so the 2nd space-related issue that would have been used in Issue #5 if #4 had been ready, was just printed in Peter Rabbit, as Space Comics was cancelled after #5. I think Space Comics was a continuation of Space Mouse, after Issue #5 of that series. But Peter Rabbit ran quite a bit after Space Comics stopped.  It ran 34 issues, although the last few had mostly reprinted stories. Frank Carin was the artist for all 3 series, and was the only Funny Animal comics artist who worked directly for Avon.

Here's the cover of "Space Comics 5":

Thanks for that. Will have to check out the rest of Space Mouse and Space Comics. It's a shame they didn't continue with the character of Space Mouse. I liked him the best.
