British comics are usually comics anthologies which are typically aimed at children, and are published weekly, although some are also published on a fortnightly or monthly schedule. The top three longest-running comics in the world, The Dandy, The Beano, and Comic Cuts[citation needed], are all British, although in modern times British comics have been largely superseded by American comic books and Japanese manga.
