Below you'll find our initiative for a comicbook in Dutch and English to celebrate/commemorate the Medway Raid. This turned out to be very succesfull and 10.000 comics were mostly donated to students, shools and interested parties. Some were distributed for a donation to our foundation and most English copies were distributed by the RNLN during international visits. Only a limited number remain in our archive. At the moment there are no plans for printing another batch.
