Express Super Colour Annual

The Express Super Colour Annual was a short-lived but vibrant series of four oversized comic annuals published by Beaverbrook between 1956 and 1959. Each issue offered a colorful, British-flavored mix of adventure strips, humor, and puzzles, designed as a special treat for young readers during the holidays. While it didn’t launch any lasting icons, it stands as a charming snapshot of mid-century children’s comics, showcasing the bold, full-color art and lighthearted storytelling that defined the era.
