COMMANDO 1970

(POCKET HOMEPAGE)

All the Commando titles for 1970  (449 – 520)

 

No price increase.

Decimalisation year.

 

Ian Kennedy did his first of many covers, with 453 ‘Seek and Strike’, taking over the mantle of Ken Barr.

Ken had been doing less covers since 1968.

Mackay did the last of his two covers with 518 ‘Battle Buggy’.

 

Regular cover artists this year were:

Ken Barr, Buccherri, Chicharro, Ramon de la Fuente, Lopez Espi, Fernando, Gonzalez, Ian Kennedy, Gordon Livingstone, Longaron, Mackay, Jordi Penalva, Porto.

 

Favourite cover:

I like 495 ‘The Flying Fox’ Ian Kennedy.
