Notes[]
Following the cancellation of the Wildcat title, Loner's adventures continued to appear intermittently in Eagle until issue #422. His strip lasted longer than those of his three companions, Turbo Jones, Kitten Magee and Joe Alien. Loner's entire series was later reprinted by Fleetway/Quality in a seven issue limited series also titled Loner (see gallery). The first two issues reprinted his stories from Wildcat #1-12, the remaining five parts reprint his stories from Eagle #371-374, #380, #384 (issue #3), #387, #393, #395-400 (#4), #401-410 (#5), #411-419 (#6) and #420-422 plus short story Don't Take the Tablets (from Wildcat) and two short stories from 2000 AD (in #7).
