We had IDW comics, but not Archie comics. given it was before internet was more household, I didn't even know of Archie Sonic comics during the '90s.
I guess shipping cost was very costly back then from US to UK so no sellers imported the Archie comic.
Or may be because there's already a series from Fleetway so they didn't feel the need to import another version of it.
Isn't fishing both a hobby and a job? Though fishing as an occupation often involves boats and nets.
It could be both but it could be one or the other.
But other than a professional anglers, I never found people's depended on his life just by using a fishing rod.
Fisherman mostly uses fishing net or trawl, not fishing rods.
