Commando: Dingo's Mates - Brent Towns


In 1914, Aussie Dingo Smith and his cobbers -- Blue, Pete, Harry, Tugga and Puddin' signed up with no hesitation. Dingo would do anything to protect his mates, but on the beaches of Gallipoli, among the mass devastation, something changed in Dingo. As he faced the barrel of a Turkish soldier's rifle, his blood froze. Had the bravest of them all become a coward?

(This is the best COMMANDO issue I've read so far. It's a tale of cowardice and courage under fire in the classic war fiction tradition. An excellent yarn and it gets a high recommendation from me.)
