Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | British comics as the name suggests are comics that originate from Britain. British comics are usually Anthology Comics and often have annuals printed once a year (or at least they used to). British comics evolved out of story papers with a number of story papers switching to comics. The earliest British comics, such as Comic Cuts, began in the 1890s and these slowly evolved into the modern anthology comic which in the early days would feature humourous, adventurous and text stories the latter owing to their story paper roots. The oldest British Comic which survives to this day is The Dandy which began in 1937 although The Beano (from the same publisher) which began, a year later, in 1938 has now superseded it in issue numbers due to the Dandy's period as a fortnightly publication in the late 2000s. |
