COMMANDO 1984
All
the Commando titles for 1984 (1763 –
1858) |
The price of Commando increased to 22p in
October.
It was nice
to see a reprint of ‘The Fighting Major’ 1795, this was the only cover done by Willow
and one of my favourites, another cover this year, the only one done by artist
Robertson, was 1816 ‘Panzer-trap’, I like this cover, as in some sense it looks
like a technical drawing with so much detail.
There were
some great covers this year, and one of my favourite cover artists Alan
Philpott did twelve.
Regular
cover artists this year were:
J. Bevan, Ron Brown, Jacono, Ian Kennedy, Longaron,
Alan Philpott, Robertson.
Reprint
cover artists:
Ian Kennedy, Gordon Livingstone, Jordi Penalva,
Favourite
cover:
Other than
the ones mentioned above, I liked 1776 ‘Secret Enemy’ (Longaron).
The first two issues each month are reprints the original/new issue
numbers are in brackets. |
