For any Beano fans on this wiki, I would recommend editing on the Beano Wiki. While this wiki covers British comics in general, the Beano Wiki fully focuses on the Beano. And we don't just cover the comics on the Beano Wiki, we cover anything. If you are fan of a Beano, I would really appreciate to have more pages and images of comic issues on the wiki. Here's the wiki: https://beano.fandom.com/wiki/Beano_Wiki
Im trying to source a Spiderman special comic that im fairly sure i bought in the summer of early 80's - one of the spiderman stories has Peter Parker arrive beaten up at MJs door and falls into her arms. Does anyone know which comic this story appears in? Cheers, Andy
When I was a kid in the 90s I used to read a comic called Cosmic.
It was about these two red outfitted guys in a spaceship that looked kinda like a big red car.
I think the main guy was called Cosmic or Captain Cosmic or something like that. I think his sidekick was called Star and they had a robot duck.
It was basically funny space adventures. The comic had a second story about a girl called Nikki who accidentally bought a time machine second hand. The time machine looked like a race car with a computer in the back and had a hologram called Quark who looked like a tiny astronaut.
I assume the comic was British as I bought it in both Northern and the Republic of Ireland.
Minor details about specific stories:
One story set on an ice planet called Crystal that's inhabited by intelligent penguins. Might have been an Xmas special.
A story where a space pirate attacks some domed arboritum. The plants save him by generating air when his ship crashes or something so he repays the debt by patching a hole in the dome with his pirate ship.
There was a story with three blob like aliens. One was green and one was blue and googly eyes toys of them came with the comic.
I can find no reference at all to it online and would appreciate it if somebody could help.
Entitled 'Champ/We Are United'....a group of fans of Champ, and in particular the story 'We Are United' discuss British comics, with a focus (so far) on football...Roy of the Rovers, Football Picture Story Monthly, and Striker (including an interview with its creator Pete Nash). Interview with Barry Tomlinson (Lion, Tiger, ROTR, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) coming up.
Also covering war comics, 2000AD, Scream, and many more.
On all the usual providers Spotify, Apple, Soundcloud, Anchor FM, Castbox, Google, under 'Champ/We Are United'
I'm looking for help in identifying a storyline from the late 1960s or early 1970s.
Does anyone recall a possible single episode story telling the tale of 'the most dangerous man/creature in the universe and his escape from an ultra secure prison cell that couldn't hold him'?
During that timeframe, I was an avid reader of comics such as Wizard and Hornet before graduating to Flash, Green Lantern, Thor and Superman (Bizzaro).
I mention these titles in the hope that this may help identify the source of the storyline that is frustratingly still in my head some 50 years later.

Two stories from comics in my youth had me fascinated. I have no idea which comics they were in, but if anyone can shed any light I'd be so grateful....
1) Metal eating pink sponge things - this strip ran for ages. Earth had been invaded by these bizarre pink sponges that ate metal. If you hit one they'd split into lots of little ones.
2) Something like the "Steel Claw" - some strange metal glove that let the wearer (was it someone called Randall or Crandall) become invisible.
For a bonus point (and I'm really pushing my luck here) there was another story about aliens that moved really fast - so fast we couldn't see them. We thought they were attacking us but they were really just unaware that we were so slow.
Make an old man happy and drop any memories you may have here. It would make my day.
Hello again! It's been a long time.
Today I bring you the Dennis & Gnasher Wiki, the wiki about The Beano's comic strip Dennis the Menace and Gnasher.
The wiki could use a little boost...

I'm doing academic research into British comics and I want to track this strip down. I think it was reprinted in terminal-phase Battle Storm Force but where and when did it first run? </p>
