Welcome to this awesome site, Gokhan!

I think I first found this site because I was reasearching about Quality Comics superheroes.

Hope you'll enjoy all of the wonderful old comics that are here!

Welcome Gokhan,
There are thousands of comics here for you to enjoy.  I know The Manchester Area fairly well.  I used to spend a few months each year in The Monton area of Eccles, and in Salford, and oldham and Stockport.  I never looked for comic books there, however.   :D

Yes.  It's where the Eccles cakes come from.

Classic Goons sketch!   Thanks for the link.

Re-runs of The Goon Show currently on Radio 4 Extra (BBC)

But you need to register/sign in to listen.  Worth while as there are a lot of old comedy shows, incl. Hancock.
You tube has lots of episodes:-

Listeners waited in anticipation for the arrival of their favourite character eg, Eccles; Bluebottle; Moriarty, or my favourite, Major Bloodnok.
