JEFF BEVAN
COMMANDO COVER TITLES
Created: February 10th 2006
Updated: October 2nd 2024
Jeff Bevan was a staff artist with D.C.
Thomson & Co Ltd.
As a student, Jeff worked on the River
dredged waste out to deeper water for
dumping.
As an artist, Jeff carried out commissions
for European and American navies.
Therefore, his love for nautical subjects is
apparent in some of his Commando covers.
His first cover being #734 ‘BORN TO BE BRAVE’
April 1973.
And his last original cover being #2938
‘STRIKE FAST – STRIKE HARD’ late March 1996.
There was a period between August 1975 – May
1981 when there were no Bevan covers.
All the covers since 1996 have been reprints.
Sadly, Jeff died in 1992.
