The next set of Commando comics, on sale this Thursday, features two new stories from Dominic Teague, with art from Alberto Saichann and Esteve Polls and covers by Marco Bianchini.
It’s rare that Commando touches on certain aspects the true horror of World War Two, but “V for Vengeance”, another story centred on the Deathless Men, who, as previously noted, have previously featured in various DC Thomson weekly comics, is an exception. There’s clear reference to Nazi treatment of the Jews in concentration camps in the opening pages, and as with past recent stories, this one’s pretty brutal – but holds your attention throughout.
Alberto Saichann is on fire on the art on this tale, as is Esteve Polls with the other new story’ “All for Nothing”. Both great additions to your Commando library!
Issues 5931-5934, go on sale from Thursday 12th February 2026.
Commando 5931 (Home of Heroes): V for Vengeance: The Art of Death
Story: Dominic Teague
Art: Alberto Saichann
Cover: Marco Bianchini
Paris, 1940. The Nazis have occupied the city, hope lies tattered under their oppression, and light and art have fled – or so the Germans thought. The Parisians cried aloud for vengeance and the Deathless Men – masked assassins clad in grey – answered, bringing their bloody retribution to the City of Light.
It was now the turn of the tyrants, the murderers, the torturers and the collaborators to tremble. They could not escape vengeance, their time was coming!
Commando 5932 (Gold Collection): Vengeance Squad
Story: CG Walker
Art: Ibanez
Cover: Jordi Peñalva
First published 1983 as No. 1683
Jim Bryant, an Englishman working in Burma, had turned traitor and gone over to the enemy. Every night he broadcast to the Allied troops in the jungle, telling them how hopeless the situation was. At first, they just laughed, but soon the treacherous voice made the men angry and afraid.
There was only one answer to the problem – silence Bryant. And that’s where The Vengeance Squad came in…
Commando 5933 (For Action and Adventure): All for Nothing
Story: Dominic Teague
Art: Esteve Polls
Cover: Marco Bianchini
While advancing on Berlin in the wake of Germany’s surrender, British Captain Roderick Churchill contends with remaining pockets of German resistance that have yet to acknowledge their nation’s defeat. Along the way, he learns the story of two young German soldiers who, while fighting in the Battle of Berlin, became disillusioned about the righteousness of their nation’s cause. But while one of these young soldiers surrenders to Churchill peacefully, his friend proves more difficult to pacify…
Commando 5934 (Silver Collection): Escape From France
Story: McDevitt
Art: Ruiz
Cover: Philpott
First published 1974 as No. 1856
With resistance to the German advance in France crumbling rapidly, every Allied unit had to flee the country as best they could. Andy Blake’s lads thought they’d managed okay until their boat ran aground. The only lot who could help was a French platoon — but Andy’s squad had double-crossed them earlier.
Would the French save them now?
