Issue 15 is the first of this comic featuring Jet Fury as the lead feature. The first 14 issues have Secret Agent Michael Chance as the lead feature, with Jet Fury starting out as a back-up feature from issue 12, also being co-featured on the cover.

I like Larry Horak's art, although on the cover (which reprints an interior panel) it looks like Jet Fury is laughing as he leaps into action. The National Library of Australia says Jet Fury was modeled after Horak's Skyman, but I also think he resembles Fawcett's Spy Smasher (the cover even has him in a brown costume like the original Spy Smasher).

The pages are numbered using the prefix,"MC15 - (page number)" So it looks like the art was prepared for a Michael Chance book but Jet Fury became the lead and the title changed to Jet Fury. Also, the front cover, top right shows "Michael" with the price beneath in a blotch of colour. This is a NZ reprint which I bought from a dealer at a London con many tears ago. He had a lot of Aus and NZ comics, some of which are on CB+ There are 2 repeated pages in my scan. I'll fix that and upload a corrected copy.

I've found a couple of Michael Chance comics, so will hopefully have one up in the next few weeks.
