The pocket-sized Commando books with its iconic dagger logo is celebrating 60 years of wartime adventure and lantern-jawed heroes.
First published in 1961 by DC Thomson Media, Commando has thrilled its readers, aged eight to 80, with over 5,000 issues of adventure, heroism, and comradery.
At the start, Commando’s stories were almost exclusively about the Second World War but over time, readers have been able to delve into tales of any conflict from the days of the Roman Empire to the almost contemporary First Gulf War.
