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world, The Dandy, The Beano, and Comic Cuts, are all British, although in modern times British comics have been largely superseded by American comic books and Japanese manga.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 :

    Hi Boutje,

    Here are 4 more Wham! issues from 1965.

    issue 72 has the corner torn off most pages but I felt it worth sending it.
    Should be adding more 1965 issues before the end of the year.

    Regards

    Rob

  9. “A British comic is a periodical published in the United Kingdom that contains comic strips.” I wonder if it might be more accurate to say ‘… that contains picture strips’ ? A ‘comic’ strip really implies comedy, i.e. implies the strip has a humorous content. But by the 1960s many comic strips were based on war stories, or science fiction, or Westerns, and no longer had a humorous element. The American term ‘comicbook’ also became commonly used in Britain about then, as another alternative to ‘comic strip’, given that few boy’s comics still had a comedic or comical subject.

      I disagree. As a kid of the late 70s and early 80s, living in England, it was all ‘comics’ and ‘comic strips’ to me. Whether it’s a kind of colloquialism or not is splitting hairs. Regardless of whether I was buying 2000AD, Scream, The Beezer, Whizzer & Chips, Victor or Roy Of The Rovers, as far as I was concerned it was ‘comic strips’ and not ‘picture strips’ as you seem to be suggesting.

        Actually he wasn’t suggesting that picture strips is what they were called. Rather he is suggesting that it is a more accurate name for them, given that comic implies something funny, which many strips aren’t, at least not intentionally. Although he might have a valid point I think it is too late in the game for anything like that to happen.

    Does anyone remember a British comic strip that featured a boy in World War 2 who got separated from his parents and he lived in a bombed out shopping centre underground? It would have been out in the 1960’s
