5383: Coventry Blitz
14th November, 1940, was a day that the city of Coventry in England would never forget. That night, over 500 Luftwaffe bombers raided the city with the intention of wiping it off the map, its worst attack of the war thus far. The fires that tore through the city were out of control and the firefighters of the Auxiliary Fire Service were spread thin. The people of Coventry are a tough bunch and they weren’t going to let a little blitz bring their spirits down! But a rogue Jerry airman causing havoc among the fires already raging in the city sure was a lot to handle!

5384: Mosquito Strike
A classic Commando comic from 1967! In Issue 5384 ‘Mosquito Strike’ , no-one and we mean no-one wanted to fly as navigator with Mad Marston — a pilot who didn’t seem to care how low he flew or if he even made it back from an operation. Only one man dared to fly with that menace — and he was going to teach Marston a lesson he wouldn’t forget!
With a masterful Ken Barr cover, amazing interiors from Arias and a gritty story by Brunt — well, don’t miss it!

5385: The Flying Emu
Aussie twins Ernie and Teddy Sharp were determined to do their bit in the war raging in Europe — the one they called The Great War. Both twins had their eyes set on the sky and the Australian Flying Corps, but only one of them would make it. Bitter and resentful, Ernie was prepared to risk it all and become flightless like an emu, joining the infantry and heading for the trenches, ready to fight on the ground. But one chance meeting on the battlefield was about to change Ernie’s war forever, and this emu was about to the skies after all!

5386: Danger All Around
Berlin, 1945, is about the last place you'd want to be. The city was in turmoil as the Allies attacked from all sides. The Germans were like cornered rats and there was danger all around. So not the place you’d want to visit for a day trip… especially as a British secret agent wearing a German uniform!
With stellar art from Philpott and a striking cover from Miller — you won’t want to miss this classic silver Commando!
