5887: V for Vengeance: Prisoner 7324
As air raids wreak havoc over the skies of Berlin, dread pervades the Nazi party. High-ranking officials are being assassinated one by one by the mysterious group named ‘The Deathless Men’. At the scene of each crime, the killers leave a list of future victims alongside a proclamation titled ‘V for Vengeance’.
Desperately, those whose names are listed seek answers, but their only clues link each assassin to deceased prisoners of a concentration camp – are the dead returning to seek revenge?
Commando welcomes the explosive return of the V for Vengeance series – first seen in the pages of The Wizard in 1942! Now brought to the black-and-white pages of Commando by Alberto Saichann, Dominic Teague’s Deathless Men are equally as bloodthirsty and hellbent on vengeance as the original series!

5888: Noose for a Hero
It was madness… a British patrol and a South African patrol hunting each other down like wild animals in the narrow moon-lit streets of a ruined North African oasis. Bullets sang through the gloom as men who had been friends only one hour before acted like savage enemies.
The cause of all this was something that had happened on another dark night in 1899, in South Africa…
Eric Hebden weaves a woeful tale of allies turned enemies in Issue 5888 Noose for a Hero, as the past has a way of coming back to bite you! With Victor de la Fuente and Jordi Penalva on artwork duties!

5889: Eagle’s Descent
Iran, 1943. The ‘Big Three’ – Winston Churchill, Joseph Stalin and Franklin Roosevelt – were set to have a conference to decide the final strategy for the war against Nazi Germany and its Axis partners. But the Germans knew about the conference – and they were prepared to do anything in their power to assassinate the enemy leaders – even putting a spy in the American embassy!
Rossa McPhillips spins a tale of spies, deception and intrigue in his latest issue of Commando. With so many spies around – how can anyone be trusted?! With artwork from the amazing Manuel Benet!

5890: The Secret Base
From the outside it looked like an old, deserted rocket site, with bomb-blasted buildings and debris scattered everywhere. But hidden underground bunkers concealed sleek, fast Arado 234 jet bombers which were being made ready for a very special top-secret mission. They had to be stopped - and quickly too!
RA Montague’s story about hidden base holds a dark and deadly secret – the Nazi’s final plan to beat the Allies! What’s more, Denis McLoughlin’s gritty and detailed artwork had us biting our nails at the tension!
