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The Dandy, The Beano, and Comic Cuts, are all British, although in modern times British comics have been largely superseded by American comic books and Japanese manga.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

Grand Comics Database

      Billy the Cat was published by Dc Thomson. I let you know more further who the artist is, when I find out. However, Billy the Cat was both in Buddy comic and the Dandy, or was it Beano?

    Do you have Classics from the comics by Dc Thomson ? It had a total of 175 comics. I ask, because I cannot find it on your blog. Advise me what to do, so I know whether to upload you the whole collection it smaller files of course. If you have any, let me know which numbers you have or not have, so I know what to upload to you. If you want the whole collection, it be my pleasure to upload for you, after it is prepared of course.

      Thanks but you better save your time for something different because this title started in 1996 so there are not many issues from before 2000.
      That goes for all my blogs, only issues from before the year 2000 will be placed, so save your time and don’t upload newer issues.
      For the blog with superheroes, only issues from the golden age will be placed on that blog.

      Sorry for all your hard work, but they are not suitable for one of my blogs. I know it’s confusing sometimes, but i try to hold on to the themes of the blogs.
      But you are doing a great job otherwise, really.

      I’m now working on Garth. I have many, many complete stories. The problem is the quality, often too poor. I’m still looking for better stuff. James Bond is more difficult to find than Garth. Also Rip Kirby is scarce on line..

    I started preparing the next update, so all issues that are provided after today will be in the update after the next update.
    I hope i can update this blog in the week of the 19th if everything goes smooth because i have to upload around 30gb and always have to keep in mind that, like sometimes downloads, uploads not always going as planned speedwise and otherwise.

    Compilation – The Leopard From Lime Street [Buster Comics, Annuals and Specials] is now ready for all to enjoy. He was my favourite many years ago. I grew up throughout the whole story from beginning to end. I use to visit IPC Magazines Ltd at Kings Reach Tower when I was a Kid, same age as Billy Farmer or The Leopard From Lime Street. One Highlight of my life was they use to give me comics six weeks before going to the shops. I was popular at School with other friends, who ask how I always had them ahead of time six weeks before come to shop, I will reply that is my secret, as I am friends with Billy Farmer. Kids were so gullible in those days, during the 1980’s, believed me too, also were wondering if I was the Leopard from Lime street in disguise. Anyway, Enjoy. I worked really hard to clean up the pages too, most are now if they are brand new.
