    Reprinting Commando War Stories in Pictures (1961 D. C. Thomson Digest) #84: Hero from Hollywood - Written by Eric Hebden. Art by Jones. Cover by Alvaro. Almost every man has a hero -- the one bloke in all the world he'd give his right arm to be like. Corporal Joe Brent's number one he-man was the big, granite-fisted American film-star Chet Marvin. In the days before the war, Joe queued up to see every movie he made, and marvelled at the sheer guts of the man. Then, one day in 1941, against a background of exploding German bombs and throbbing aero-engines, Corporal Joe Brent and his celluloid hero met face to face. It should have been the greatest day in Joe's life. But this was no Hollywood film set. This was war! And when the shot and shell are no longer blanks, it's easy to sort out the men from the boys. Weekly British War comics digest. Softcover, 5 1/2-in. x 6 1/2-in., 68 pages, B&W.
