Commando and Spellbound go digital

Kick-starting the launch of Heritage Comics digital editions are two special Warlord collections. First up, is Commando Presents… The Warlord Files Volume 1, collating the two Codename: Warlord stories released in Commando comics in 2019. Accompanying this is Heritage Comics Presents… Codename: Warlord Volume 1, which features the first six adventures of Lord Peter Flint, taken from the vaults of DC Thomson’s Archives. Get both now on Kindle and ComiXology.

Commando Presents… The Warlord Files Volume 1

In September 1974, WARLORD was launched, bringing a weekly anthology of action and adventure to comic readers across the UK… and further afield. Amongst the most popular and well-remembered strips was the one starring Lord Peter Flint — Codename: WARLORD. The eponymous character continued to thrill readers every week until the comic ceased publication in September 1986, after an incredible 627-issue run.

Then, in 2019 Britain’s top secret agent returned in the pages of the legendary long-running Commando comic. These two recent adventures are collected in a brand-new Digital Graphic Novel, as DC Thomson’s Heritage Comics and Commando present… The WARLORD Files: Volume 1!

The wartime Scarlet Pimpernel is back. Nazis beware! A defecting German professor in need of rescue? A plan to build the biggest ‘Fuhrer’ class warship of all time uncovered? Though branded a coward, there can only be one man for the job — Flint, Lord Peter Flint… Codename: WARLORD!

SPELLBOUND Volume 1

A special chilling new release from Heritage Comics, Spellbound Volume 1 is out now and available to buy digitally on Kindle and ComiXology. With a new introduction, a selection of vintage features, and a cover gallery, classic chills and thrills await inside…

September 1976 saw a strange new publication sharing newsagent’s shelves next to Bunty, Judy, Mandy, and other traditional kids comics. Spellbound described itself as the ‘all mystery story paper for girls’, and it featured nothing but strange, mysterious and spine-tingling tales designed to give its young readers chills with their thrills.

Throughout its run, those readers encountered otherworldly adventure with ‘The Supercats’, schoolyard sorcery with ‘I Don’t Want to be a Witch’, ancient Egyptian princesses stalking the streets in ‘When the Mummy Walks’, and a bewitched time-travelling torch in ‘The Shop at Shudder Corner’. Clearly, Damian Darke — ‘The Master of Mystery’— was in fine, if frightening company, when he stepped out of the shadows of his library of strange stories in Spellbound’s first issue.

More than 40 years after it merged with sister comic Debbie, the legacy of Spellbound lives on as it returns to cast its spell in this special collection!

Experience the strange and sinister tales told by the mysterious Damian Darke, with artwork by, among others, Brian Lewis (House of Hammer, World of the Unknown: Ghosts), and get entangled in the enchanting serial ‘I DON’T WANT TO BE A WITCH!’, featuring early artwork by prolific British comics artist, Norman Lee (Mandy, Judy), whose distinctive style graced most of Spellbound’s covers.

Plus new Spellbound stories by Georgia Standen Battle (Commandos Vs Zombies series), Daniel McGachey (They That Dwell in Dark Places, By No Mortal Hand), and featuring early work by rising comic art stars Anna Morozova (2000AD, Rocky of the Rovers) and Lauren Knight (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Golden Rage).

Look out for new Heritage Comics and Commando Presents digital releases on the final Wednesday of every month!
