Commando

For over sixty years, DC Thomson’s Commando has been a staple of British war comics, delivering self-contained, action-packed stories of soldiers, sailors, and airmen from World War II and beyond. Launched in 1955 by the Horwitz publishing group, the series is best known for its distinctive pocket-sized format, gritty black-and-white interior art, and vivid painted covers. Though it began as a monthly title, Commando quickly became a beloved institution, with its no-nonsense tales of courage and camaraderie earning a dedicated readership across generations. Its enduring appeal lies in its commitment to straightforward, thrilling storytelling that honors the human side of conflict.
