Handle this latest bumper book of the best of "Commando" war stories with care. You'll need nerves of steel to cope with the drama and the excitement, and once you've found a safe spot to settle in and open the book...well, you'll be hooked and unable to put it down. Where else could you come across titles like "Desert Fox", "They Flew by Night", "Sea Strike", "The Death or Glory Mob", Zero Smasher". And where else could you go into action alongside a British army sergeant hunting down a Jerry tank with only his Tommy gun and a couple of grenades...or the Lancaster pilot who knew no fear until he was put behind the controls of a bomber that was jinxed. You can read about all these ordinary men turned into heroes and their stories for yourself. They are all here in this great collection of the best of "Commando" picture stories where all guns are blazing and every page is packed with action and adventure!

I have been an ardent reader of Commando Comics since my childhood but wasn't able to pursue the same owing to call of duty. Got it neatly packed on 05 December, 2014. Though I haven't read all of 'em, but the initial scanning has lead to the impression that these are indeed 12 of the best... The following are the individual titles:-
1. Fire Over England
2. Desert Fox
3. Danger in the Deep
4. The Desert of Death
5. The Savage Sky
6. The Death or Glory Mob
7. Zero Smasher
8. Island of Death
9. Sea Strike
10.Assassin!
11.They Flew by Night
12.Colonel Scarface
Thanks to Amazon for providing these at a wonderful price.... Overall... A Great Buy...Gonna buy more of 'em... Bash on regardless...

5.0 out of 5 stars Excitement, adventure, courage & valour

What a marvellous collection of stories from the superb Commando comic archives.
I had already bought & eagerly devoured the stories in "The Dirty Dozen" & "True Brit" collections & this volume continued in the same pulsating fashion. Some really exciting stories that really take you back in time. Some of these stories are better written than some of the "reading" books I see my kids with - what does that say ?
Enough of the ramblings of a grumpy old cynic - this is a super collection - the nostalgia value is worth the money alone but the stories are brilliant too. The valour of the British serviceman in World War 2, the victories against seemingly impossible odds & the thrills & spills along the way.Highly recommended.

I didn't realise that this was a book collection of stories and not the actual comics but that makes it all the better in my opinion, I will be buying more.
