Worth a look, interestingly enough the seller is former 2000AD editor David Bishop.
These are the issues he referenced for his
Blazin' Battle Action article for the Judge Dredd Megazine.

jeez, a veritable blast from the past.
PS. That article is cool el Baroni, meant to say that for years. But John Cooper dissing you, whatcha make of that buckethead? Jim Watson, Geoff Campion, Cam Kennedy (who did your head nude), don't remember them waxing lyrical about AF muppetry...

Ah, but at the time he was doing the original Johnny Red in his Hurri single-handedly saving the Russian Front rocketing Fritzis galore while screaming Za Rodinu only to hoiked off and dumped onto the latest promotional merch tie-in to keep the publication limping along. Boudn to have been a bit of a oet down, so we'll let the comments slide.

Agreed, even Ratov must have coughed up his rancid borsht and black bread when that directive came in from Battle's embattled editorial desk...

No I haven't but am now ... Cheers for the tip! Fkn awesome.
And as I know from personal experience it is actually UrrraaAAAAHHHHHH once they've all got going! Urai was a result of Pathe news editing of the warm ups, oops. Good old cold war era Johnny R, he lives for ever.

Am well stuck in now. Never read the first stories. Yakob back too. Got a pal called Polyakov too, this is... intense! Right now it's winter 1983 and I've got into AF and BAF I'm happy as pie.
Irony is Battle and I share nearly the same birthdate. Mother fed me Commando and Father old original Eagles until an unfortunate sensitive crime with Eagle AF special issues in early 83. Or was it early 82? Late 82. The free edition of BAF proper landed on the shelves as I bought
for GBP 1.50.

This is gonna be a hell of a very long contact.
Yeah, my special issues, let's just say everything comes to a conclusion one day. Like BAF. And the Sopranos, tomorrow night I believe, EST 9PM
