    Short summary describing this issue.

    After only 6 issues, New Fun underwent a name change to More Fun, although it would only remain as such until issue 8. The change helped distinguish the comic from the recently launched New Comics, but it would finally gel as More Fun Comics with issue #9 in March. This final rechristening also coincided with a new slimmed down size, which corresponded with what many audiences would recognise as standard comic book size.
