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The Dandy, The Beano, and Comic Cuts, are all British, although in modern times British comics have been largely superseded by American comic books and Japanese manga.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

The only one I have and probably the only one I’ll do any time soon as they’re not cheap and it’s not a great book, so I doubt there’s anything that great in the others as IPC annuals in the eighties were dicey at the best of times.

Talking of Misty, while I’ve no intention of buying back issues (like the annuals the prices are artificially inflated) I have been playing around with the processing of the scans we do have of them. While the low DPI means it’s polishing a turd and I realise the heavy processing isn’t to everyone’s taste, I’ve done the Feb 1978 issues: –

British History in Strip Pictures
https://www.mediafire.com/file/fstar38q4pja4jg/BritishHistoryInStripPictures.cbz/file
Published by Odhams in 1960. Very much a time capsule, with the basic premise being that the British have basically never, ever done anything wrong and that things like colonialism and monarchy are uncritically good things. Bit more info here – https://www.atlasantiques.co.uk/en-GB/ephemera-books/british-history-in-strip-pictures-james-mainwaring-hardback-1st-ed/prod_13023
The copy I found was missing the dust jacket, so I just swiped a picture off Google.

June Book 1975
https://www.mediafire.com/file/2d1nuqqy42j4pqd/June+Book+1975.cbz/file
Due to the book falling apart I switched to destructive scanning, and while it’s not perfect it really does seem to have minimised the warping, though feature and glossy pages are still a bit variable. So my plan going forward is destructive scanning of any annuals with nominal value, and hanging on to the pages until I get something sorted for a flatbed scanner. I will probably go back and rescan some of the other annuals I’ve posted with the same method but honestly they’ll be behind anything I haven’t scanned at all.

Hi all,
Been really enjoying the content on here, many thanks..
However, do you have any of the UK Batman annuals from the 70s or 80s at all please? I’m particually after the one in which Batman is replaced as a crime fighter by a robot and after an accident, Comissioner Gordon gets a court order to stop him from crime fighting.
Many thanks!
