| Had they survived the landing at the deadly river-mouth, mined and |
| ambushed by the Japanese, and fought their way through the horrors of |
| the jungle, just to be picked off on this ridge by Japanese planes? |
| Was this the finish - here, when below them lay the secret Japanese |
| airfield they'd come so many blood-stained miles to destroy? |
| |
| Was it blazes! |

| Introduction |
| |
| Although every Commando story starts |
| life as a plot line, sometimes it's not the story that grabs your |
| attention, sometimes it's the cover, sometimes it's the inside art. |
| That is certainly the case here. Alonso's pants-on-fire style of |
| illustration socks you in the eye and keeps the tale racing along. |
| Once you get past the art, you can appreciate that it's a |
| well-worked, complicated plot that Alonso is working with. There's |
| jeopardy round every corner and enough friction between the characters |
| to start a small fire - see the comment about Alonso's style. |
| |
| Cover artist Chaco holds his end up well, reducing the amount of |
| colour in the illustration to show that it's night, but also showing up |
| the gun flashes and the probing searchlight. A good job by all three. |
| Calum Laird, Commando Editor |
