    Chuck Ballard Goes to War - Written by Norman Adams. Art by Luis Olivera. Cover by Ian Kennedy. December 7th, 1941 -- America is left reeling from Japan's sneak attack on Pearl Harbor. For the Japanese crew of a Nakajima B5N2 "Kate" torpedo bomber, however, the success is short-lived. After crash-landing on a supposedly deserted island, they are dismayed to find that it is in fact home to a village full of civilians. Though the three Japanese airmen do not wish to take innocent lives, their fellow countrymen, responding to their mayday signal, are not so honourable. This may turn out to be their undoing, thanks to the presence of an ex-Marine who is an expert with a hunting rifle. Weekly British War comics digest. Softcover, 5 1/2-in. x 6 1/2-in., 68 pages, B&W.

    Reprinting Commando War Stories in Pictures (1961 D. C. Thomson Digest) #1: Walk - Or Die! - Written by Eric Castle. Art by Amador Garcia. Cover by Ken Barr. Corporal Tom Gerrard of the Royal Tank Corps was just an ordinary bloke, easy going and cheerful. Colonel Karl Oberth of the SS Panzer Corps was a typical Nazi officer, brutal and merciless. Somewhere on the limitless, scorching inferno of the Western Desert, Fate decided that their tank tracks should cross. Here then is the story of the epic fight put up by Corporal Gerrard and his tank, Matilda, against the might and power of the Panzers and their swaggering Colonel, who thought he could sweep the British off the face of the desert.

    Reprinting Commando War Stories in Pictures (1961 D. C. Thomson Digest) #994: Riley's Rifle - Written by Cyril Walker. Art by Galindo. Cover by Ian Kennedy. It was a rifle like countless others, standard issue to thousands upon thousands of men in the British Army in two World Wars -- a Lee-Enfield No.1 Mark III. Millions of them were made. Some are still in use today. But there was something special about this particular rifle -- it was as if it had a life of its own, a will of its own. It seemed to want to do things by itself...and what it wanted most was vengeance! Weekly British War comics digest. Softcover, 5 1/2-in. x 6 1/2-in., 68 pages, B&W.

    Reprinting Commando War Stories in Pictures (1961 D. C. Thomson Digest) #98: Valley of Secret Weapons - Written by Eric Hebden. Art by Ortiz. Cover by Ken Barr. The Valley of Destruction, the Germans called it. It lay deep in the heart of the Tyrolean mountains, and there, Germany's most brilliant scientists worked night and day building Hitler's deadly "V for Vengeance" weapons. Sun-ray cannons, flying saucers, sound cannons, rocket-propelled tanks and jet-propelled soldiers -- strange, terrifying weapons, years ahead of their time. They were all there in that valley, being made ready to unleash on Britain. Weekly British War comics digest. Softcover, 5 1/2-in. x 6 1/2-in., 68 pages, B&W.

    Reprinting Commando War Stories in Pictures (1961 D. C. Thomson Digest) #94: Jump - Or Die! - Written by I.B. Kellie. Art by Cortes. Cover by Ken Barr. The dull throb of the Dakota's engines pounded remorselessly in the paratroopers' ears as they filed in to their jumping order. Nobody spoke, nobody smiled, nobody spared a kindly glance for the next bloke in line. Lips were dry and taut, and eyes glowed with a mixture of determination...and fear! And even as the red light changed to green for "GO," Captain Bob Brown knew that he was the most afraid of all. Which was all wrong, because he was meant to be the officer in charge of this mission, an example to all the others. Weekly British War comics digest. Softcover, 5 1/2-in. x 6 1/2-in., 68 pages, B&W.

    Fireman on the Frontline - Written by Alan Hebden. Art by Luis Olivera. Cover by Janek Matysiak. As a fireman during the London Blitz, Ted Roscoe was exempt from Armed Forces duty, as his was a reserved occupation deemed important to the war effort. He knew all about danger just the same, though, dodging bombs as he fought fire after fire. However, the Army needed Ted's expertise, too, and he was soon called to the front line. Here, Ted found himself embroiled in a deadly game of survival, with not just the enemy's hand against him! Weekly British War comics digest. Softcover, 5 1/2-in. x 6 1/2-in., 68 pages, B&W.

    The Sea Wolves - Written by Mac MacDonald. Art and Cover by Keith Page. Like wolves, the torpedo boats and gunboats of the Allies and Axis hunted the seas of the Adriatic in packs. Like wolves, they fell on their prey, always going in for the kill. And, just as amongst packs of wolves, there had to be a top dog -- would he be British or German? Weekly British War comics digest. Softcover, 5 1/2-in. x 6 1/2-in., 68 pages, B&W.
