Bounce. Marvel has the MuppetsMUPPETS PRESENTS: FAMILY REUNION Written and Penciled by ROGER LANGRIDGE It’s the Muppet Show — and as usual, things are unusual backstage! It’s family reunion time, and the relatives are coming out of the woodwork. Scooter’s twin sister, Skeeter, shows up to make him feel like a nerd. Piggy’s nephews, Randy and Andy Pig, are causing a ruckus by trying to help backstage. Kermit’s nephew, Robin, is afraid his uncle wants to put him in the orphanage. And Fozzie’s mom visits and finds out her son isn’t the detective he told her he was. Plus: Pigs in Space, the Swedish Chef, a trip to Veterinarian’s Hospital and the Great Gonzo firing Skeeter — dressed in a chicken suit — into a giant bowl of Tapioca. What else could you want? 96 PGS./All Ages...$5.99 I don't recall seeing that Muppet comics had change hands again, but the name on it rang a bell...... Didn't he do the Thor stuff that we all loved last year?

What? Even though it's now being published by Marvel?
Do the licence holders of Muppets comics not like money? I am confused.

It maybe that Marvel only have a North American license. Disney have local license partners in Europe who produce Disney comics, it maybe that they already have a blanket license for Disney stuff in Europe which is preventing Marvel from distributing over here.

I've only seen her in Muppet Family Christmas, but I am sure she's been in other stuff. ===KEN

Huge Muppets fan, but I've never really been interested in Muppets comics. Too much of what is essential in Muppets for me is in the performances, voices and music.

Martin, I would usually agree with you 100% on this, and other Muppet comics just don't have it but somehow Roger Langridge just makes it work on the page. I just don't know how he does it for that is an impressive feat. He even makes musical numbers work.

Ditto.
His have been the only print version of The Muppets that worked.
