    Plug died when he crashed his Ferrari. The teacher probably dead by now too, he wasn't a young man even back then.

    Dennis would have been about 23 when I started reading it then. Although I preferred 'Commando - War Stories In Pictures' to Desperate Dan and all that.

    Neither did Commando have "The Red Wrecker", and never offered free "magic paints" to every boy and girl.
