Why this object matters

The Ezquerra cover, Armitage Flashback conclusion and Sega advertisement provide strong original comics and games-marketing evidence. Their combination merits 8.0, with the previous 8.7 overstating a primarily contextual sequence issue.

Evidence limits: Selected interior material is photographed, but no full page-by-page collation has been performed. No separate detachable premium is advertised on the supplied cover and no issue-specific free gift was located in the sources checked; no missing premium is presently identified.
