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?
Let's just say he more than likely provided air support for the Abe Lincoln Brigade.
DeleteBlackhawk 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.
DeleteOr, failing that, how about Shang-Chi meets Richard Dragon?
DeleteNice to see Blackhawk back again. See tomorrow's comment about tofday's co-star!!
