TV Century 21 (also known as "TV21") was an important comic in the '60s and a verhicle to promote the many space age adventure puppet series created by Gerry Anderson and his wife Sylvia Anderson. TV21 was published as a newspaper from the future with stories on Thunderbirds, Fireball XL5, Stingray, Captain Scarlet and others.

Frank Bellamy is a well known artist contributing to the comic by his innovative 2-page spread comic adventures of Thunderbirds.

Due to the success of Thunderbirds, the TV21 magazine was copied and localized for the dutch market and became TV2000. In the UK, it got a girl's sidekick in the form of the Lady Penelope magazine. This featured Frank Langford's "Lady Penelope" comic.
