Commando Comic #4539 'The Magic Merlin' (2012)
 
As the Battle of Britain reached its climax, RAF Flying Officer Toby Mortimer was assigned a brand new MkII Hurricane. Toby's flying suddenly improved, and he got more kills in his new Hurri. But why?
 
Toby put it down to his new plane's Rolls-Royce Merlin XX -- because its serial number exactly matched his date of birth! That engine became his good luck charm. He was sure that his life and the Merlin's were inexplicably linked. Which was not such a good thing when another pilot had to take over his kite!
