The weekly Australian Chucklers' Weekly Vol. 1 No. 1 was published in April 1954. Superman ran from Vol. 6 No. 31, 27 November 1959 until around the start of 1961. In Panel by Panel, John Ryan states (p. 205-206): "Chucklers' Weekly was a spin-off from the popularity of the children's magazine section in the Sunday Telegraph's comic section run by Charlie Chuckles. Commencing at 6d, and gradually increasing to 1s per copy over its six year run, the magazine devoted most of its pages to fiction stories, articles, puzzles, pin-ups, record reviews and jokes. It averaged 12 pages of comics each issue but the majority of these pages used imported material."
