Welcome on this blog full of information about British comics and offcourse the comics.

A British comic is a periodical published in the United Kingdom that contains comic strips. It is generally referred to as a comic or a comic magazine, and historically as a comic paper.

British comics are usually comics anthologies which are typically aimed at children, and are published weekly, although some are also published on a fortnightly or monthly schedule. The top three longest-running comics in the world, The Dandy, The Beano, and Comic Cuts, are all British, although in modern times British comics have been largely superseded by American comic books and Japanese manga.

You can access the information and comics through the sidebar.
The comics are mostly in packages from around 100mb, inside these rar-packages you will find the comics in cbr format.dandare

There are no DC Thomson related comics on the site, because i had to remove these.

You can view the comics with any cbr-reader like CDisplay or ComicRack.

Most comics are from the 50’s-80’s with some 90’s.

I only place issues from last century,
so no issues newer than the year 1999.

I did not scan the comics myself only collect them from various sites on the internet, internet archive, Usenet Newsgroups and torrents.
So thanks to all the scanners and uploaders.

This blog is purely ment to preserve the comics and to enjoy them, no financial meanings are involved, if you like the comics buy them as long as they are availabe, because nothing can beat the feeling of reading a real comic.

If you find something wrong (downloads, numbering, information) please let me know so that i can correct the error.

Thanks to the following sites for the information :

    Hello, looking for a comic strip from the 1970’s but can’t remember much, mad scientist can shrink people to 2 inches, also shrink entire towns, I thought it might be The Steel Claw which had similar storylines but the style is very different from what I remember, memory suggests it might have have been Valiant or Vulcan comics but cannot confirm.

        From what I just researched I dont think so, what I remember is two men (government agents perhaps) were shrunk by a scientist, they met other small people (the scientist shrunk anyone who annoyed him) & had to survive the hazards of the scientist’s home & garden, he had a ray that shrunk people & animals but left buildings intact, using it on villages, towns then later a city, also built the technology into a ring he could use against people, was a British comic in black & white, adult in tone & scary (to my childhood mind!) I remember reading when I was about 7 – 10 years old, 1975-1978, thought it might have been Lion comics, Valiant or Vulcan but none seem to match.

          Carlos Cruz (24th August 1963 – 16th January 1965)

          This was a series character. The titles were:

          The Shrinker (8th December 1962 – 29th June 1963)

    That’s sad news about DC Thomson. I came back to get the Dandy after reading Scorcher over past few months. Luckily I got a lot of the Beano the first time I found your incredible website. It’s fantastic, thanks for the great work!

    If you’re working on compilations can I make a request for the ‘Toys Of Doom’ from Buster in the mid-60’s. My favourite ever comic strip.

      I am working on almost all stories from Buster if i have anough to make good compilations, but i am afraid i don’t have that many issues from the time that story was published feb65-jan68, as it was a continuing story it’s hard to make a good compilation.

    This is the end of my relationship with Buck Ryan: more than three years of work and 64 restored adventures. Unfortunately there are still 9 stories missing from before 1944. If anyone would like to help out …
    In the meantime, goodbye Buck, Zola, Twilight and Ma-the-cache. I will miss you

    Sorry, you can ignore this comment, I just realised what I was looking for was the TV Action special, not TV Comic.
    While I’m here, thanks very much for this site! As an avid consumer of obscure Doctor Who media it’s been an invaluable resource!
