In 1952, The Rover story papers introduced a new hero — Matt Braddock, bomber pilot VC! For years he entertained readers with prose and comic stories alike. Then, in 2019 Braddock dive-bombed into the pages of Commando, the world’s longest-running war comic. That issue, as well as selected original stories and art from DC Thomson’s Rover, Red Dagger and Victor, is collected in DC Thomson’s Heritage Comics and Commando Presents… Braddock Volume 1.
“Better you just forget about being a pilot”, said Squadron Leader Roy Suddaby when Matt Braddock first tried to enlist in the auxiliaries. But he wasn’t a quitter, and the blue-eyed man with uncanny talent would fight his way to the best bombing squad in Britain before he could bring the fight to Nazi Germany. The war is on, and the RAF’s best known bomber ace is back in this all-new adventure!
Delight at over 180 pages of classic Braddock comic artwork, behind-the-scenes looks at the original features, iconic covers and spreads that featured in some of DC Thomson’s most legendary titles, including part one of the iconic ‘I Flew With Braddock’ novel!
