Still waiting on that Blackhawk theatrical movie. ⏳
ReplyDelete@Div: you'd probably be better off trying to find the full-length remastering of the original b/w 1940's movie serial on Youtube.
Delete@ Ross: magnificently panoramic. :-)
ReplyDeleteI noticed that the last couple days, the filename of the image changed from the issue number (e.g. 5226.jpg) to something more random-looking (image1785750858.jpg). Is that a mistake, or how it will be, going forward?
ReplyDeleteI never knew Bill Ward did work other than his famous adult work with Torchy, I was wondering is the Blackhawk a splash page or from a cover?
ReplyDeleteA Splash if I recall correctly.
ReplyDeleteThat's kind of the thing, isn't it? Timely (Marvel) didn't have that much in the way of flying heroes during World War II -- not like National (DC), Fawcett, and others.
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile, I hope Bart has another hat, because if what he's standing on is in motion this one's going bye-bye.
The only two I know of were Perry Wade (swashbuckling flyer of the Silver Streak*); and Captain Terror (red-masked-and garbed veteran of the Spanish Civil War). Pre-FF Ben Grimm was only canonical as a WWII-era fighter pilot during the first three or four real-world decades of the Fantastic Four! After the God-Emperor Doom story arc, all that changed. Sliding time scale of ten years maximum...or something like that.
Delete*Not to be confused with Lev Gleason's resident crime-fighting android.
Do I presume correctly that that Captain Terror flew for the Republicans rather than for the Nationalists?
DeleteHow about a team-up between him and DC's ghostly pirate Captain Fear, whose sympathies probably would also have been that way round?
Blackhawk and Black Condor (plus Black Bolt?) is next?
ReplyDeleteSort of a male version of Ross' "Black Beauties"?
DeleteSee STF #299.
DeleteGood luck. How about crossing over a classic romance comic character from the 1970s with the 1990s sitcom Friends, or maybe Shang-Chi (Marvel) meets Hands of the Dragon (Atlas/Seaboard)?
ReplyDeleteOr, failing that, how about Shang-Chi vs. Shang Tsung and Quan Chi?
DeleteI'd rather have Captain Planet meet Prince Planet.
DeleteNice to see Blackhawk back again. See tomorrow's comment about tofday's co-star!!
