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The Dandy, The Beano, and Comic Cuts, are all British, although in modern times British comics have been largely superseded by American comic books and Japanese manga.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

Funny Wonder etc. bundle; mostly not my scans. The history on the page is inaccurate, but that’s not surprising as it’s a complete clusterfunk.
*It started off as a comic called Wonder in July 1892; this wasn’t a success, running only 27 issues.
*So in 1893 it was relaunched as The Funny Wonder with partial success, reaching #325
*From 1899 the series was renumbered and relaunched, still as The Funny Wonder.
-Funny Wonder [1889 series] 1900-07-07 063
-Funny Wonder [1889 series] 1901-03-16 (partial)
*After 109 issues the ‘Funny’ bit was dropped from the title, but only 24 more issues followed.
*In 1901 the title renumbered from #1 again and became a story paper called The Wonder but this only lasted 25 issues.
*In 1902 it was relaunched again as The Jester and Wonder; this *wasn’t* a merger. This was successful and ran for 508 issues.
*In 1912 Amalgamated Press decided to split it into two titles. The Jester continued the numbering and was primarily a comic, while The Penny Wonder started from #1 as a story paper.
-Penny Wonder 009 1912-04-06 (partial)
-Penny Wonder 025 1912-07-27
*This was another failure, and in 1913 it became a story paper called The Wonder, which only ran for a year.
*It then became the Halfpenny Wonder, which ran for even less.
*Later in 1914 it returned to being a comic called The Funny Wonder. This is the famous one, and ran for years due to the smart decision to include Charlie Chaplin strips. It’s this series that the two Chaplin-cover issues already on the site come from.
*In 1942 this was renamed simply Wonder, but continued the numbering.
-Wonder 1948-07-10 [abysmal quality]
-Wonder 1949-05-14
This ran until 1953, when it was cancelled the same week as Comic Cuts and Illustrated Chips.
Believe it or not, that is the simplified version of the title’s history. The issue of Funny Wonder and Jester already on the site (#1315) is /not/ technically part of the series, and is nothing to to with the 1902-1912 Jester and Wonder. It’s an export omnibus of The Funny Wonder and Jester for sale in overseas Commonwealth countries (hence the prominent prices).

Michael Carroll’s website Rusty Staples has a comprehensive breakdown of the madness: https://michaelowencarroll.wordpress.com/2020/01/03/the-mysteries-of-wonder/

Yeah, I usually find Rusty Staples quite useful but it’s weird that he ignores Gifford’s catalogue for that one, which isn’t faultless but does establish things like the 1899 renumbering. AP’s numbers and weekly schedule is pretty rock solid [i.e. if there are 200 weeks between two dates there will have been 200 issues] until about World War II, its only really in the fifties that they started to do things like single issues with multiple numbers, multiple dates, undated numbers and the like.
Likewise steange Carroll doesn’t mention about the Jester naming in 1902 – AP thought it would be a great name for a comic but didn’t at the time have a comic to go with it so just slapped the title on The Wonder before anyone else thought of it.
I’m currently trying to figure out exactly the point AP started doing mergers, and it seems to be the Butterfly/Firefly Merry and Bright/Favourite Comic Cordwell carnage of 1917. Before that it seems to be renumbering or renaming.

Puck #898 (not my scan)
Annuals 1921, 1924 & 32 – highly variable due to condition of the originals, which have pages missing and/or damaged, sometimes faded, use a weird feely paper stock that’s curled over the past century and occasionally awful green ink which does not stand up well. On top of that they’re crap.
Started by Amalgamated Press in 1904, despite its twee appearance Puck was important long-term for the industry. It was AP’s first regular colour comic (not Britain’s first as the editorial often claimed, something which has been taken as fact by some parties). More importantly it was one of the first comics to aim for post-nursery adults, which was vital to the medium surviving when adults deserted comics for cheap newspapers. It also debuted “Rob the Rover” in 1920, which is widely agreed to be the first adventure comic story in Britain (and possibly the world). The comic ran until 1940, when it was clobbered by WW2 paper shortages – it was merged into Sunbeam but presumably the quotas weren’t worked out properly, as Sunbeam disappeared two weeks later.

I did also mean to warn: each annual has at least one instance of massive racism. I don’t believe in censoring this and whitewashing British history, but the material is deeply offensive.

I’d say it’s deeply embarrassing rather than deeply offensive. Getting upset by stupid and racially insensitive stereotypes in kids’ ephemera from 100+ years ago is a waste of energy.
