Became a slick on American lines after World War II; by the time of its demise it had absorbed such similar magazines as The Passing Show, News Review, The Illustrated (1958) and Everybody's Weekly (1959); it published little fiction until after WW2 when it started to feature Agatha Christie, Nicholas Monsarrat, N.J. Crisp, Gerald Kersh, J.B. Priestley.

Note that it was called "John Bull Everybody's Weekly" for a while in 1959 at least after the merger with Everybody's Weekly.

The (John) Creasey Mystery Magazine was a high-quality mystery and detective digest that ran for 90 issues between 1956 and 1965, mainly on a monthly basis. It was initially titled The Creasey Mystery Magazine and mainly featured reprint stories selected by Creasey, but was renamed to John Creasey Mystery Magazine when Creasey took over publication in October 1957, and thereafter featured a sprinkling of new stories both by old favourites and new authors.

Five issues of John Creasey Mystery Magazine have been located which have identical contents and issue numbers to the main sequence, but are dated four months later. Although there is nothing on the issues to indicate their source, this was a common pattern for Australian Reprint Editions of crime digests at that time, so it is assumed this is an Australian edition of the magazine.

Four issues of John Creasey Mystery Magazine have been located which have identical contents and issue numbers to the main sequence, but have stickers on the cover identifying them as a "Special U.S. Edition", with a price of 35 cents and dates ranging from January to March (presumably 1959).

Heavily illustrated children's magazine.
