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The Dandy, The Beano, and Comic Cuts, are all British, although in modern times British comics have been largely superseded by American comic books and Japanese manga.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

    Here’s 2 more pages for your Trigan Empire compilation

    Ranger 11 (1965-11-27)

    http://www.mediafire.com/file/thgdc0jvsq6kvgb/Ranger+11+%5B1965-11-27%5D.cbz

    As far as Ranger is concerned, I believe that just leaves issues #23 and #32 to find. After #40 it merged with Look and Learn.

      Hi
      I have scans of Ranger 23 (19/2/65) and 32 (30/4/65). Not used media fire but guessing it should be straight forward and I will try and do in the next day or so. Hope that helps.
      Any scans of TV Comic specials from 1965 or 1967 around ?.
      Regards
      Rob

    Here is a complete issue of Hotspur 118 (1962-01-20).
    The issue currently on the Hotspur page only has the 4-page Union Jack Jackson story.

    Some issues of Victor are bad quality scans (damaged pages, missing pages, etc). I’ll try and obtain better scans. Here’s a better copy of Victor 266 1966-03-26.

    https://www.mediafire.com/file/s4161igci6oh5g5/Victor_1966-03-26.cbz/file

    The copy on the site has a large piece torn out of the cover page and page two, and, pages 31 and 32 are actually from a different issue entirely.

    Also 15 upgraded different titles

    This time it’s the 1st time of a different way of updating,
    everything on 1 page with the date of the update
    which you can find at the bottom of the More Comics.
    I will leave this page a few months open and in the mean time
    i will place all of these at the correct pages when i
    reorganize them or at the allready reorganized pages
    at the correct position, so all downloadpages will be
    free of the updates in the future and will all be
    chronologically organized.

    That moment when you are almost finished scanning an entire 1988 Annual (finishing up page 125 out of 128)…….and only then notice that you have being saving the image files with the label “1898” instead of “1988”. And then have to rename all the files.

      That is tedious indeed. Why not use a filerename utility, i mostly use Bulk Rename Utility, i rename tons of files in just a few seconds, it’s free and not to difficult to use. But i am sure there are enough other such utilities, use Google to find them.

        I’ve tried numerous file renaming utilities over the years but none of them ever seemed to work properly.

        I just downloaded that one you mentioned. It’s perfect! And so easy to use.

        Thanks.
