Issue Description

DEATH VALLEY

…that was the name the Burmese villagers gave to the precarious, sheer-sided gorge which had claimed so many lives.

And the arrogant Japanese who had invaded their land were soon to get a nasty surprise, courtesy of a British sabotage team, which would make them call it that too!

Introduction by Scott Montgomery, Deputy Editor

One classic Commando story scenario could be described as "Men on a mission…"

Death Valley certainly falls into that category. But what happens when one of those men - who is already pretty reckless - becomes increasingly arrogant and, even worse, more unscrupulous, as the mission goes on?

An interesting twist on a familiar theme makes this tough jungle tale one to savour - and is reminiscent of Commando's gritty origins in the 1960s.

First published in 1988, No. 2215.
