Memories................
Boys' comics have provided their readers with entertainment, excitement, and escapism ever since they were first published in the late nineteenth century. Boys comics started to regularly include athletes of all stripes during the first half of the 20th century as participation and attendance at sporting events increased substantially, with footballers emerging as the clear favourite. In the 1960s, cartoon-strip-style football comics gained enormous popularity, with some of the most well-known titles including Rover, Hotspur, and Wizard.
Despite the fact that these comics are no longer in print, boys and men of all ages continue to show a sizable amount of interest in them, and the culture of the comic-book hero lives on. Popular publishers Limp Along Leslie, Roy Race, Billy Dane, and Hotshot Hamish are among the iconic footballers that graced the pages of boys comics that the renowned publisher D.C. Thomson has combed through its archives to compile the ultimate list of. The Ultimate Fantasy Football Team is a distinctive, nostalgic overview of the football comic book phenomenon that has been thoroughly studied to explore the history and the narratives connected with these comics and its heroes.
