Believe it or not, on July 13th The Muppets Take Manhattan turned 30 years old! To help promote the film Marvel produced "Marvel Super Special #32" a 68 page comic adaptation of the film.
It was later released as a 3-issue mini series that ran from November 1984 - December 1985.
This comic was great way to relieve the events of the film while waiting for the home video release, which at that time was around 6 months or more for just the initial rental market.
The adaptation was based off the original script and featured scenes and dialogue not included in the final film.
Here are a few pages from the first issue:
Thanks to blogger Dean Yeagle, you can read the entire first issue right here on his flickr page, classic ads and all!
