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The Dandy, The Beano, and Comic Cuts, are all British, although in modern times British comics have been largely superseded by American comic books and Japanese manga.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

    Here’s another gaggle of strips from newspapers: Matt Marriott’s Story No. 43, thanks to Ron Schmitt and Thomas Ward (and hoping others will follow), and several vintages of Tumbleweeds dailies. Others will follow; I plan to go at least as far back as the late 1980s. I am trying to do the same with the Sundays. Right now I am looking for those from the early years. Would anyone be able to help me? Thanks in advance. Tumbleweeds is an unjustly forgotten masterpiece of humor and satire.

        I know and I have them all. Now, I am working on free online newspaper archives, which give almost only daily strips (which I supplement, for the first few years, with good Italian reprints), so my problem remains the lack of the sundays, Anyway, thanks for your kindness. The best thing would be the availability of the Australian reprints, which seem to be very good, but unfortunately they are unobtainable on the net. Let’s hope well, who knows that one day, may be on Christmass….

    Hi Boutje, it seems like the download for TV Comic Annual 1962 and 1963 is not working properly. When unzipping the file, only Annual 1962 is coming out. Not getting Annual 1963. Thank you.

    Just a note to say great work Boutje. I continue to get so much joy and entertainment from this site. Thanks to the scanners too, but Boutje, don’t be too modest about the work you do aggregating, organising and making this material easily available too.

    ..and now a short plea. Valiant Summer Special for 1980- with a terrific Brian Bolland cover of House of Dolmann https://www.comics.org/issue/2237096/cover/4/.

    Its not on your site that I can see; If anyone knows of a scan please upload if its no trouble. I’ve been looking for a hard copy with no success. Certainly, if I find one I will scan and upload as best I can.

      It’s a bit hard to find. There was one for sale on a Danish site last year but I couldn’t sign up to it without a Scandinavian phone number!
