Before He Became the Ultimate Russkie-Smasher...
...he was the premier Nazi-Puncher!
Now witness his first bombshell appearance in Quality's Military Comics #1 (1941)










Written by Will (The Spirit) Eisner & Bob Powell and illustrated by Chuck Cuidera, the initial appearance of Blackhawk and his crew is slightly-different from all later stories!
- No trademark Grumman XF5F Skyrockets...which will premiere in the next issue! The planes we do see are rather...generic!
- The uniforms are different. Blackhawk doesn't have his distinctive hawk-head insignia on his chest, and all the Blackhawk uniforms are almost solid black, rather than blue.
- The Blackhawks themselves are not yet identified, and the only one who speaks has a British accent!
We'll be rotating Blackhawk's Russkie-Smashing tales with his earlier Nazi-Punching adventures, so watch for them!
