Following on from the demise of The Rocket, it ran from October 1924 to May 1940 for a total of 814 issues.

During its long run it incorporated The Boy's Friend in January 1928, then The Gem in January 1940 for a short spell before itself being merged with The Champion.

Billed in some of its issues as 'Every Yarn's A Thriller', it featured a broad spectrum of thrilling adventure stories.
