Summary
Having previously been titled simply Spider-Man, on October 12th 1983 with #553, Marvel UK's longest running title renamed itself Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends in an attempt to capitalise on the popularity of the cartoon series of that name which was then airing on British TV. After three issues reprinting the US comic adaptation of the cartoon's pilot episode, the ongoing Spider-Man strip reverted to reprinting the regular US Spider-Man titles, but the Amazing Friends subtitle was retained. With #567 on January 18th 1984 the comic absorbed failing sister title Thor and the X-Men, briefly acknowledging the merger on the cover.
