Editing Film Fun (section)

== Publication history ==
''Film Fun'' was launched by [[Amalgamated Press]] (they would later release similar titles like ''[[Radio Fun]]'', ''Sports Fun'', and ''[[TV Fun]]''). Pre-[[World War II|war]] circulation at its peak was around 800,000 copies per week.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.comicpriceguide.co.uk/uk_comic.php?tc=filmfun |title=The Comic Book Price Guide For Great Britain - FILM FUN |publisher=Comicpriceguide.co.uk |access-date=2014-03-03}}</ref>

The title was renamed ''Film Fun and Thrills'' in 1959 (when Amalgamated Press was bought by the Mirror Group; later known as [[International Publishing Company|IPC]]). In 1962, sales of ''Film Fun'' dropped below 125,000 a week, prompting IPC to merge the comic with ''[[Buster (comics)|Buster]]''.

===Mergers===
''[[Picture Fun]]'' merged with ''Film Fun'' soon after its launch in 1920, followed by ''[[Kinema Comic]]'' in 1932, ''[[Film Picture Stories]]'' in 1935, ''[[Illustrated Chips]]'' in 1953, and ''[[Top Spot (comics)|Top Spot]]'' in 1960.<ref>{{cite web|author=Lew Stringer |url=http://lewstringer.blogspot.com/2011/01/top-spot-clint-of-1958.html |title=Blimey!
