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The Dandy, The Beano, and Comic Cuts, are all British, although in modern times British comics have been largely superseded by American comic books and Japanese manga.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

    Compared to everyone’s brilliant Lion work, a slightly less impressive single Knockout!

    Thank you Boombox for Knockout issue, although you say less impressive than recent Lion’s, it is impressive in another way, as Knockout’s are hard to come by. Especially for ‘Space Familly Rollinsons’ stories…. Kind Regards Bosco.

    Hi Boutje

    here is a compilation of the first Supercar series from TV Comic which spanned issues 483 to 507 (18/3/61 to 2/9/61) before moving to the centre pages and being in full colour.

    https://www.mediafire.com/file/dwzawsvnzo8bwls/BLACK+AND+WHITE+483-507.rar/file

    I am working on stitching those centre pages of those into one to make a second compilation so would welcome any advice as I have not tried doing that for a while.

    Thanks

    • XNView has a good no-frills image join option and lots of easy ways to tweak, while I use GIMP for anything that actually needs overlaying; both are free. Yet to find anything really good on mobile, I think it’s just one of those things that works best on a computer.

      Thank you, although it’s more for the compilationsblog where i’m not working on anymore and since there is no Supercarpage on this blog i will place it on Various Comics where 2 Supercar issues are. Perhaps you can place the link also on the Compilationsblog in a comment.

      Thank you for the Supercar compilation. But because of the end of this great site ( sad news indeed…) I am afraid we will not have the rest of the great comic strips from TV Comic ( Fireball XL5 and the Supercar color serie ). even if they are not included by the ban from Rebellion. Is there a way to continue sharing them with our community ? May be on the Newspaper comics blog that will continue to be maintained ? Thanks again ! jfmcd1
