Operation Single Handed

Post by The Baron »

Does anyone know anything about the free comics that came with the later Action Force figures? I have one for the Super Trooper, and there's another one here:

I have no idea who the bird guy is, but both comics are entitled Operation Single Handed. does anyone know how many there are?

The "bird guy" is Raptor, a Cobra agent who breeds mutated birds of prey to use as spies and messengers. As for the mini comics, never seen them before, didn't think any of the later figures came with mini comics.
There are really only two possibilities: Either there is life in the universe more intelligent than us, or we are the most intelligent form of life in the universe. Either way, it's a pretty worrying thought!

Having spoken to the seller, it would appear that the reason both comics are called Operation Single Handed is that they're one and the same...

Sigh. As it features the Super Trooper, must have been a mail-in thing.

Hmmm I remember the Super Troper mail in but I don't remember it being a comic. Fairly sure the one I got with one of my later figures was a simple double sided leaflet/coupon thing. Maybe I'm just going senile in my old age (nearly 28) though.
