COMMANDO 1978
Created:
|
All the Commando titles for 1978
(1187 – 1282) |
The price of Commando increased to 10p
in November.
It
was nice to see reprints of 1195 ‘Mountain of Death’ (Fernando), 1211 ‘I was a
Nazi General’ (Aldoma Puig) & 1267 ‘Day of Danger’ (Gordon Livingstone) and
at the end of the year, the one and only cover by Weaver 1282 ‘Jet Strike’ with
interior art by John Ridgway.
Also
Gibbons did his one and only cover with 1218 ‘His Majesty’s Schooner’ a fine
piece of art.
Regular
cover artists this year were:
Sanfeliz, Eustaguio Segrelles,
Weaver, Jacono, Ian Kennedy, Phillips, Longaron, Villagran, Cortiella, Gibbons,
Rollan, Ortega,
Reprint
cover artists:
Lopez Espi, Gordon Livingstone,
Sanfeliz, Fernando, Mackay, Artur Aldoma Puig, Jordi Penalva, Ken Barr,
Favourite
cover:
1205
‘A Tank called Tessie’ (Gonzalez) as this cover reminded of the style of Ken
Barr’s earlier covers.
I
also liked two Ian Kennedy covers, 1229 ‘Mystery from the Past’ & 1278 ‘The
Helmet’ for its simplicity.
