COMMANDO 1999
Created:
|
All the Commando titles for 1999
(3203 – 3298) |
The price of Commando increased to
70p in October.
The
year saw the last original title by Gordon Livingstone 3293 ‘Sweeney’s
Gordon’s
first title for Commando was 4 ‘Mercy for None’ released July 1961.
In
a period spanning 39 years, Gordon did the interior art for over 360 original
issues and over 60 covers.
I
think the most mysterious cover this year was 3282 ‘Deadly Contact’. The cover
is in the style of Tubaro, with faces on the rear cover in the style of Denis
McLoughlin, (Denis never did any Commando covers), but there is a signature on
the front cover in the bottom right hand corner ‘Chito’.
I
only know one cover attributed to Chito, and that was 2270 ‘High Risk Raid’. Any
thoughts?
Regular
cover artists this year were:
Benet, J. Bevan, Ron Brown, Ibanez, Jose
Maria Jorge, Ian Kennedy, Keith Page, Carlos Pino, John Ridgway, Tubaro.
Reprint
cover artists:
J. Bevan, Ron Brown, Ibanez, Ian
Kennedy.
Favourite
covers:
3226
‘Heroes Never Run’ Tubaro & 3265 ‘Bogus Bomber’ Jose Maria Jorge.
