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The Dandy, The Beano, and Comic Cuts, are all British, although in modern times British comics have been largely superseded by American comic books and Japanese manga.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

UK Comics Wiki

Grand Comics Database

      Many thanks for these. This is a wonderful addition to the site: I’ve been after ‘Seven’ for a long time now, and hadn’t realised that ‘Esmeralda’ was a follow-up. Some joker on Ebay is asking £115, plus £5 p&p. for the 16 issue run. I’d rather give it to you!

        I share the same happiness with you. No need to give me your money, but you can donate it to someone who need it. Hopefully you can help me find the missing Esmerelda #32.

    Here is the complete 68 page issue of Super Detective Library #14 (thanks to Bogof39). The one currently available only has 58 pages and is the abridged (and retitled) version from Valiant Picture Library #28.

    I don’t suppose you know the identity of an artist who went by the name “Scherzo”? I’m not sure if he did any comic strips, but he did work for the TV Times, Sunday Mirror, Daily Telegraph and Punch. All I know is he was a Northerner and born in the mid-1920s:

    Hello, Many thanks for all the great downloads. It’s great to read all these great comics again. I was wondering if you have, or can get, the book MASTERS OF FUN AND THRILLS: BRITISH COMIC ARTISTS by David Ashford and Norman Wright? Also copies of BOOK AND MAGAZINE COLLECTOR?
