Fleetway Super Library was a comic published by Fleetway from 1967 to
1968.
As its title suggests it followed the picture library format,
albeit on a chunkier scale than usual:
each issue was
132 pages long,
containing a 122-page main story alongside back-up material
such as a
quiz or reprints of humour strips.
The Fleetway Super Library series was itself split into three smaller
series, each with two protagonists. Stupendous, which was called
Fantastic during the first month
of its existence,
followed the exploits
of the Steel Claw (from Valiant) and the Spider (from Lion);
the
military-themed Front Line starred Maddock’s Marauders and
Top-Sergeant
Ironside,
both of whom would migrate to Battle Picture Library following
the demise of Super Library;
and finally Secret Agent told the stories
of Johnny Nero and the Lion hero Barracuda.
Super Library was not long-lived: it ended in January 1968 after a
total of 78 issues,
26 for each sub-series.
Steve Holland has argued
that it could
be regarded as Britain’s first series of graphic novels.
