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The Dandy, The Beano, and Comic Cuts, are all British, although in modern times British comics have been largely superseded by American comic books and Japanese manga.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

    I am going to postpone the opening for the pulp and old magazines until after the summerbreak. This blog along with my other blogs will have very little action from me in the summertime when the weather’s fine (that sounds familiar).
    I am often to the countryside, cycling, fishing (not after sharks), photographing, kiting,visiting festivals.
    I will read and answer comments and gather links, but updating will be very slow after the last update in may, probably will start again in september.

    Quite right. As the weather improves here, I’m out in the garden more, or walking and visiting the preserved railway nearby and going away for a few days from time to time. Less time for comics. A change is as good as a rest. Enjoy your kiting.

        It is good to know that Disaster Des did not destroy my Dropbox like he did to Andy and Frank. From now on, anything from them will come from my dropbox, since it works. I will just tell you who sent what, so you know.
