Found by father and son Leonard and Arnold Miller in 1943.

L. Miller & Son, Ltd. was a British publisher who sought to take advantage of the wartime ban on imported printed matter by reprinting U.S. comics for the U.K. market. Beginning with 1945's Master Comics, they began reprinting Fawcett Publications titles. Later adding other titles for King Features Syndicate characters, among them "Mandrake the Magician".

In the 1950s Arnold Miller set up his own branch of the company, Arnold Book Company (ABC) to publish original British comics. In 1966 L. Miller Ltd sold their printing plates to Alan Class Comics and left the comic publishing business.
