I remember them, i've not seen them for years, if your searching for them, post back if found, it would be nice to read them again.

Plenty are availible on ebay along with Commando Titles, Battle Picture Library & War Picture Library. "A pineapple for you nips......... aaeeeiiiiiiii!"

You can still get them, they sell them in the corner shop that I work in. They owner orders them in especially for one person, he doesn't have any on the shelves.

In a an evening of nostalgia my wife and I tried to think of a lot of things that we loved as kids that our kids may not be able to enjoy. War comics and Commando books was one of them (mine, not hers). I was pleasantly surprised to see that WH Smith in the Arndale in Manc are selling them again, and they don�t seem to have changed.

I've just been given a stack of them....they have photos of football stars on the inside covers....Alan Ball is in one, and Frannie Lee is in another!

My boyfriend loves this and he recently bought some, I'm pretty sure he found them in WH Smiths.

Are they the ones with things like "Die you blitisher dogs!" and "Aaieeeeeeeeeee!!"?

I remember reading these around about 25 yrs ago. So very non P.C Nowadays though . "This one is for you fritz" etc and as soon as i saw this thread rabelais's comment "A pineapple for you nips...... aaaaaeeeeeiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii" brought it flooding straight back. Class comment.
