The 8.15 to Danger - Written by Alan Hebden. Art and Cover by John Ridgway. Railwaymen were in a reserved occupation during the Second World War as their particular skills were rated so highly. That didn't mean they didn't have to work hard or that they could dodge danger -- there were always trains to haul and air raids were a constant hazard. Driver Arthur Beckinshaw and his fireman Ernie Entwistle were two such men, happy that they were "doing their bit" even though they weren't in uniform. Then they were sent to the Middle East, where they found that engine driving was a lot more dangerous than they could ever have dreamt. Weekly British War comics digest.

Hyperfire! - Written by Alan Hebden. Art by Rezzonico. Cover by Janek Matysiak. When the might of the German Blitzkrieg overwhelmed Poland at the beginning of World War II, Sergeant Adem Kozcki of the Polish Army found himself on the run with a survivor from the staff of a destroyed weapons development facility. They had reason to run, for a ruthless SS weapons expert was on their tails and would not stop until he found them. Why? Because he was after two highly-experimental machine guns rescued from the facility -- one of which had a devastating firing rate of 500 rounds per second. This wasn't rapid fire. This was...hyperfire! Weekly British War comics digest. Softcover, 5 1/2-in. x 6 1/2-in., 68 pages, B&W.
