Issue Description

He was a brilliant fighter pilot, ruthless and cunning - he knew no fear. For his breath-taking skill and sheer nerve he was known to friend and foe alike as "The Flying Shark."

But there was another reason for that name. Tattooed on the pilot's right shoulder was the emblem of a shark's head. He didn't know how it had got there - in fact, he didn't even know who he really was!

Introduction

Brought to you by a trio of our finest contributors - each of whom is firing on all creative cylinders - The Flying Shark is classic Commando through and through.

Writer Roger Sanderson - now best known as a prolific author of Mills and Boon romance novels - delivers an exciting script with a neat mystery at its core. Visually, Gordon Livingstone's interior artwork is up to its usual impeccable standard while Ian Kennedy's cover is typically stunning.

As I said: classic Commando. I hope you enjoy re-visiting it.
