Russkie-Smashers BLACKHAWK "Nightmare Cruise"

We're Winding Up a Month of Russkie-Smashing with the Busiest Russkie-Smashers of All...

...awww, you guessed!

Scripted by Robert Bernstein, penciled by Dick Dillin, and inked by Chuck Cuidera, this never-reprinted story from Quality's Blackhawk #105 (1956) showed no matter what environment (air, land, or sea), nothing stops the Dark Knights (yes, they were referred that way long before a certain Caped Crusader) from defending democracy!

Next Week: We're Back to Nazi-Punching...with Blackhawk and his team!
(He was around a loooong time!)

Third Reich Terrors CHALLENGER COMICS "Golem" (Who He Is and How He Came to Be!)

Our Final Third Reich Terror  Starts out As a Nazi-Punching Tale...

...then becomes the telling of a legend,,,and a parable!

Written by Robert Bernstein and illustrated by Joe Kubert, this story from Interfaith Publications' Challenger #3 (1946) adapting the legend of the Golem of Prague was apparently created during WWII, but didn't see publication until after the war ended!

Next Monday: The Return of Russkie Smashers!

Russkie-Smashers SPY CASES "Smashing the Iron Curtain!"

"A secret agent is not some mythical being born on the comic page..."

...and raised to glory on the silver screen!"

How "meta" can you get?

Though the tale is closer to Mickey Spillane than Ian Fleming, it's still a rousing adventure that proves you don't need tights and a cape to smash Russkies!

Doug Grant was the star of the ongoing (and usually cover-featured) lead strip of Atlas' Spy Cases anthology comic.

This intro tale from #27 (actually #1, but they were continuing the numbering from a different comic, The Kellys) is scripted by Robert Bernstein and illustrated by Al Hartley.

He lasted for 39 stories, longer than any other Atlas-era secret agent except for The Yellow Claw's nemesis Jimmy Woo!

Next Week:

The legendary Man of Bronze takes on the Nazis at the 1936 Olympics as they put up an athlete who was trained from birth using the same techniques that Dr Clark Savage Sr used for Doc in this never-reprinted, almost 40 year-old extra-long tale!

Guest appearances by historical figures including Jesse Owens and Adolf (You Know Who)!

Russkie-Smashers BLACKHAWK "Flying Tank Platoon!"

Let's Get Back to Some Serious Russkie-Smashing...

...as the Blackhawks tackle what was then state-of-the-art technology!

Unlike an earlier tale we presented about 1950s high-tech, this never-reprinted story from Quality's Blackhawk #106 (1956) was not based on actual experimental prototypes!

Writer Robert Bernstein, penciler Dick Dillin, and inker Chuck Cuidera created this whole thing from their fertile imaginations!
