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world, The Dandy, The Beano, and Comic Cuts, are all British, although in modern times British comics have been largely superseded by American comic books and Japanese manga.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 have discovered that Lion & Thunder Hoilday Special 1973 is still missing from the collection of Lion annuals and specials. It has a picture of Mowser on the cover. Can anyone help this one.

    I am working on reorganizing the Beano pages at this moment, so if you see crosses where covers used to be, you know the reason.
    I think i can get them reorganized midweek or so.
    Let me know if you are still busy with downloading from the Beano Uploadpage, so i don’t delete that page this week.
    You will also find all the issues from this uploadpage on the newly reorganized
    pages offcourse.

    In the mean time i am busy with making Christmas compilations also.
    I made 1 example with Judge Dredd, and collecting Christmas related stories from other wellknown British characters like Bash Street Kids, Beryl the Peril, Dennis the Menace, Desperate Dan, Ivy the Terrible, Lord Snooty, Roger the Dodger, Three Bears and all that i can find.
    I hope to have them ready at the beginning of december and uploaded to the compilationsblog.

    You can download the Judge Dredd compilation to see what i have in mind.

    I am starting with reorganizing the Eagle pretty soon. After some good advice i decided to leave the 1st serie like it is, v1 01 and so on until v20, (because that is how they are known by most people), but split them in different years, and collect them and make packs in the proper order.
    There will be a page 1950 v01 01 – v01 38, 1951 v01 39 – v02 38 and so on.

    For the 2nd serie i will rename them with dates because that is a completely different comic and not so well known for their issuenumbers, so dates will be more sufficient for these.

      When you do “Eagle series 2 ” could you also put the numbers on the issues that have the numbers, its very confusing how they kept putting the numbers on then dropping them to put them back on later , thanks

        I allready renamed them, i think it’s more confusing to have numbers and dates, i am going to date most of the titles that were published over more decades.

    I’ve finished reorganizing the Beezer, all new pages are open for visit.
    I suggest you visit the pages if you are interested in the Beezer because there are well over 600 issues that weren’t on the blog before, i also replaced 179 issues from the 294 that were on the blog with better quality scans and complete or more complete issues.
    It looks to me that it would be double the work to include all these issues in the next update.

    There has been a change of plans also, next one to be reorganize is the Buster, because that page started to look a bit confusing with all the updates.

    I’ve been going through ’60s Lion. LN61-06 won’t download. Keeps telling me it failed and it generates a new download code.

    Thanks for all your work. I’m an American but had an English pen-pal during that period. (Still remember his name and address.) He sent me an issue and left me with a cliffhanger all these years ago.

      Sometimes there are temporary problems, or popups can be annoying, when you try the other day, everything is working again. Let me know if the problem stays so i can make a new link for the download.

    I am ready organizing the Buster pages, they are all open. The old page is deleted.
    There are 30 new issues for that title, but they also will show up in the next update where i am working on as we speak. I hope to have this update ready somewhere next week.
    Next title that will be organized is the Topper, with also hundreds of new issues that aren’t on the blog now and also alot that have better quality and are complete or more complete, so these won’t be in the update but on the new organized pages, because there are so many new and upgraded ones.

      Great to see the revamped Buster pages – I have many happy years of reading Buster (ever since my favorite comic Cor merged into Buster). You might want to take a closer look at your Specials, though. Over the years the summer special was names Buster Holiday Fun Special, Buster Holiday Special, and Buster and Monster Fun Holiday Special – but was effectively just a continuous run of the Buster Summer Special. You have split them by the 3 headings, but you’ve done it in an arbitrary way (i.e. you have tried to split them by the title, but have put the wrong ones under the individual headings). As a result, you have got duplicates of some of your specials.
      Also, I note under various you have listed a Christmas Special, but when you look closely at it it appears to just be a normal issue of Buster (that just happened to be published at Christmas).
