Commando 5503: Home of Heroes: SS Colonel - cover by Ian Kennedy

A boisterous adventure from Brent Towns set on the desolate battlefields of Russia. A German unit is cut down with only one survivor — but it’s not the Russians he hunts down as he seeks revenge! Corrupt SS Colonel Wagner uses allies and enemies alike as he seeks to make his own profit from the suffering of others. Cold, hard vengeance is coming…

Commando 5504: Gold Collection: Mosquito Ace - cover by Ken Barr

Harry ‘Kiwi’ Dean is an outstanding Pilot with a penchant for heroics in this outlandish adventure of bombing raids and prison escapes. Hassle the enemy? No problem. Rescue an essential resistance contact? Easy. Taxi up the boulevard to break open a prison from the cockpit of your Mosquito? Of course!

Commando 5505: Action and Adventure: Angels and Thunderbolts - cover by Mark Harris

The bold bluster of a new pilot can rub a team up the wrong way — but it’s even worse when they don’t deliver! New to the unit is Archie Moran, who was close to gaining his ace and is a hero of the Pacific Theatre, but the ground runs and low-level haranguing of Italian airspace are more than he bargained for. Without a few angels under him, can he make it in Europe?

This issue offers another striking cover from Mark Harris, and the Commando team have also shared his terrific “rough”.

Commando 5506: Silver Collection: Find Them, Sink Them!

Commando 5506: Silver Collection: Find Them, Sink Them! - cover by Jeff Bevan

The rivalry between MTB Commanders is almost as terrifying at the tasks they have to undertake in this pacey, nautical tale, as these small, manoeuvrable vessels strike hard and fast at larger and more lumbering enemy ships. All fine and dandy when on the open waves – but the next big prize won’t be so easy when it’s tucked away safely in an enemy-held French harbour!
