Thorpe & Porter Ltd
Strato Publications is an imprint of UK's Thorpe & Porter (Sales) Ltd. Variants of the publisher's reprints of Comics Illustrated were printed for Australia with a local Ayers & James address, generally on the back cover, for ordering back issues. The publisher was bought by DC comics in 1965.
Some publishers used diverse publisher names in their comics. These can reflect distinct operating divisions, but may just disguise operations in the face of bans or censorship. Ausreprints records minor variations as they can help dating for undated comics.
