The Flintstones and Friends Annual

The Flintstones and Friends Annual was a pair of oversized, all-ages specials from Marvel UK in the late 1980s, collecting classic comic strips and puzzles starring the Bedrock clan and their Hanna-Barbera neighbors. Featuring the work of British creators like Alan Grant and John Wagner on the scripts, these annuals offered a nostalgic, family-friendly package of slapstick humor and activity pages. They matter as a tidy, transatlantic snapshot of how the Flintstones brand was kept alive for a new generation of readers in the UK, blending reprinted material with original UK-produced content.
