Not that I know of.

By the way do you actually own it? If so can you please post scans?

I know VR Troopers Comics existed for a short time. They we're usually a split issue with the Ninja Ranger comics. Not sure how long it lasted. I don't think it lasted very long.

True but the ones that where packaged with Ninja Ranger comics were done by Marvel, and he's talking about the Phoenix Press ones.

So I've done a bit of research, and it turns out there are 8 issues of this series.

In more personal news I finally bought the first issue on Ebay, and it just came in the mail.

It reminds me of the Marvel flip books in that there's really two stories.

The only difference is that in the middle they have two mini stories about Jeb.

Apparently though this isn't the comic I saw when I was a kid but it does have the Troopers in Battle Grid mode even it's just Ryan, and JB.

Interesting. Like I said, I only remember the one with the Ninja Rangers as the other half. Its a cool find though.

Its too bas these comic book series didn't last longer. They could even have done their own thing.

So I was wrong it wasn't 4 stories it's actually 5 because one story was a cliff hanger.

Some more good news though I just bought Issue 3 of the American version on Ebay and it should be here sometime between this Saturday and the Friday after next.

Also if you want you can go to my tumblr blog (chojin-cu-chulain.tumblr.com), and type in VR Troopers I took pictures of the comic I already have.

Their good enough to see but not good enough to actually read the words though.

Well issue 3 came yesterday.

I think storywise it was an improvement over the last one I read because there were two main stories, and only one Jeb story, and they saved the cliffhanger story until the end of the issue.

I'll upload pictures of it later.
