Seven decades later, Roy of the Rovers has become a household name and a footballing institution, transcending his humble roots to become a timeless embodiment of sportsmanship and skill across years and years of wild, historic, and breathlessly entertaining comics that are bursting with football and drama.
This anniversary special celebrates 65 years of Roy of the Rovers, from the golden age of British comics to modern day, and invites fans to relive the goals, glory, and iconic moments from seven decades of iconic football action!"
