Fair play to Richard for posting these. I wouldn't pay any heed to Commando otherwise, but now I've picked up a couple on Kindle.
It's hardly an ideal format – I have to read them on the Kindle app downloaded onto my PC – but on the plus side I am able to read a sample before purchase and determine if the interior art is up to scratch.
Back when I was a reader of Battle I would turn up my nose at the old-fashioned style of Commando, but the older, less cynical me sees more to like in the straightforward morality and somewhat simplistic narratives (which are pretty much always redemption arcs of one kind or another).
A fella can have enough hard-edged grim'n'grit in his comics.
