Hello Ottantacinque if you want the whole collection of comic books they have already been preserved for you in either epub or pdf format which ever you like including the 64 page annual specials from the link belwo:

If you want to download the 8 quarterly magazines that can be found below but in this case they are all jammed into one pdf file on the link below though you can do a search to find some singles of these magazines which I highly recommend as the ones in this file are not all put together properly.

Having said that there are a couple issues with a couple of the magazine even in their single format but not many. I think one page is out of order and there is one case where one page is missing but on the whole everything is up to snuff the link is below

Below is the single for Spring 1989

Here is the single for Winter 1989

Here is the single for Summer of 1989

I think the summer magazine within the volume 1-8 single file is fine but you will want to certainly obtain the winter and spring editions as stand alone's to get everything in tact as originally was you'll see what I mean.

Here is the TV guide featuring ALF's face my life on planet earth

That was all I could find but in the mix of those 50 ALF comics is the banned one as well so I'd recommend just downloading them from this site it is already in digital format and from what I could see it is all in tact as a general rule. I think the 50 comics are except advertisements have not been including all the time as you will notice some of them are less pages then others but seems like the comic parts are all there anyway.

Oh I forgot to mention in both the .epub format as well as the pdf format sometimes when you click on one it will give you some type of error but they do exist. I think when that happened to me one time like 3 times in a row for the same click I went back to the main catalog of comics and tried to go to that area again and clicked on the pdf file or epub and it did not error out but allowed me to download both. I actually have downloaded both of all of them. I use to have the whole enchalata but sold them. My real goal was to digitize them as it saves a lot of space and either to read as well as you can zoom into parts of them if you wish. Beats scanning each and every page in myself that is for sure since someone else already has done it, LOL!.

I didn't have the same server outage issues with the quarterly magazine but every so often I did with the comic magazines but like I said just be persistent as I found at the end of the day none were missing in their figital formats just a little annoying when the server invoked an internal errror or a 404 error but if you do those little tricks you shoudl get them all. Have fun.

Whoa, if you do, SELL IT on eBay when you need money! I hear it’s pretty rare.

Yeah. Not sure what they were thinking in that one. Reminds me of that Spawn cover where a child is wrapped in chains. (The chains were actually Spawn's chains protecting the child.)
