We’re welcoming the New Year with a brand-new Braddock story, a mystery in No Man’s Land and two cracking tales from the archives. The latest set of Commando issues went on sale on Thursday, 1st January, so they're in shops now.
5919: Braddock: The Flying Tigers
Ace pilot Matt Braddock and his navigator George Bourne go east!
Joining up with the famous Flying Tigers of the American Volunteer Group in Burma, Braddock has been tasked with convincing the Yanks to get the latest British fighter-bomber aircraft — the de Havilland Mosquito, otherwise known as the Wooden Wonder!
But the Americans can’t believe a wooden plane is capable of going head-to-head with the Japanese, so Braddock will have to fly into the thick of it to prove them wrong!

5920: The Pirates From Sub 13
Lieutenant Roddy MacNab was determined that this patrol would be a success. Against him he had thousands of ruthless Japanese, but on his side he had a leaky, old bucket of a submarine and a crew of ruffians on the brink of mutiny.
How could he lose?

5921: Murder in No Man’s Land
Two bodies, both shot in the back at close enough range to leave burn marks on their clothing. Both men had been found dead in no man’s land — each with a mysterious map hidden within a secret pocket…
Just what had Private Arthur Jones stumbled on to?

5922: Delayed Action
As an act of vengeance, a French carpenter set a deadly booby-trap for a cruel and heartless nobleman. But fate intervened and both men died before the trap could be sprung.
Now no-one knew of it, and so it lay, silent and invisible, waiting for its first victim.
