Comic Strip Stories

Main article: Comic Strip Stories

From the general public's point of view, the Thunderbirds franchise actually started out in comic form. Lady Penelope, a spy comic detailing the adventures of the titular character before (and later, afterwards) she joined International Rescue, would appear in the very first issue of TV Century 21, a comic that largely focused on the Supermarionation creations of AP Films.

The most well remembered series of comic stories began in January 1966, when the Thunderbirds television series itself made its way into TV Century 21. However the series also enjoyed comic runs throughout the 70s, 90s and 2000s, in Countdown, The Funday Times, Thunderbirds The Comic, and a magazine published by Redan.

Also of note is Zero X, a spin-off space exploration series based on the spaceship and crew seen in the feature film Thunderbirds Are Go.

Below is a list of all comic stories covered by this wiki - largely, but not entirely, consisted of stories set in the classic Thunderbirds continuity.
