Buddy No. 129, dated 30 July 1983. Frontline UK cover by Ian Kennedy which I think came from Ian's interior art from an earlier issue. Below is an ad for this issue (which turned out to be the penultimate one). DC Thomson.

Buddy No. 124, dated 25 June 1983. Two 'new' strips this issue - Midshipman Coward, art by Enrique Alcatena and Frontline UK, art by Ian Kennedy. Both pieces of art are from interior panels. Midshipman Coward was new (as far as I know) and later appeared in Spike, Frontline UK wasn't new but was a reprint of a 1976 strip that had originally appeared in Bullet. DC Thomson.

Crikey! Killer Kangaroos looks like it might portray kangaroos in a negative light.

Bullet No. 88, dated 15 October 1977. Frontline UK cover by Ian Kennedy. Ian was no longer drawing the strip at this point and the cover is actually a panel of his interior art from all the way back in Bullet No. 33.

Warlord No. 384. 40 years ago today on 30 January 1982. Force Viper are the cover stars from the unmistakable pen of Ian Kennedy. Strips inside included Sergeant Rayker, Holocaust Squadron and Kampfgruppe Falken.
