Legend
In the Czech and Slovakian republic, it is long held for a legend (being Czech, the Slovakians have no such magazine of their own), being the only magazine to officially publish international comics after the 90's comics wave within the Czech republic. It has been criticized for not publishing Czech comics, which was redeemed partly by local magazines, such as Pot.
Explaining the end of the original magazine: Crew 22 was meant to be an issue of the original Crew comics magazine, yet it never was published and Veverka sold the Logo back to the original team. Also, all the comics (except for Understanding Comics's second part) were published in the new magazine.
The Crew under Veverka was visibly less popular with the long-time fans, although it had its own following.
The new Crew magazine has claimed the legacy of the old one and there are some who claim that the new magazine also reproduces the long pauses between issues (to summarize:in 2005 5 issues were produced, instead of the regular five and the Christmas issue of 2005 appeared as the first issue of 2006, leaving the dates of two more magazine publishings unfulfilled. But the crew of the magazine must be credited, because instead they have published other comic books, such as:
- Spider-Man: Torment (utrpení)
- Preacher 2: Until the End of the World (až do konce světa)
- Formerly Known as the Justice League (Dříve zámí jako Liga spravedlnosti)
- Usagi Yojimbo: The Shadows of Death (stíny smrti)
- Nitro těžkne glycerinem (original work of editor Kopřiva(script) and famous, firstly in Crew debuting artist Grus (art)
- Comicsové legendy 13: Wolverine 4
- Torpedo: Sebrané spisy 1
- Spider-Man 3: Dokud hvězdy nezhasnou
