CharactersThe Lightning
PencilsBob Powell

NotesOriginal art credits given to Charles Sultan? but Bob Powell comes from ALTER EGO #66 (March 2007). Scan & info supplied by Jonathan C. Jensen thanks to Henry R. Kujawa's report to GCD error list.

The 'Lightning'. "A New Dynamic Character", appears only on the cover. The given title of that issue's Sheena adventure, "The Elephants' Graveyard", had actually appeared in the previous issue.

NotesTitle is taken from the cover. While all other Hawk episodes to date are reprinted from earlier Eisner-Iger syndicated material, this appears to have been done especially for Jumbo Comics and does not appear in the complete "Hawks of the Seas" reprint volume from Kitchen Sink.

NotesThe characters speak for the first time which makes us think that this is probably NOT by Eisner.

NotesA product of the Eisner-Iger Shop - Hames sees Bob Powell on females. An interesting artist, but Nordling is just a guess. Has a Jack Hearne feel, but probably too early.

NotesOr possibly Bob Powell [or "Powell-Henkel"] art in the beginning, or Frank Frollo, or a weak Rafael Astarita.

First LineDown a dusty road, silhouetted against the setting sun...
NotesLee seems pretty certain of his IDs, so I went with them. Fine looks okay to me in the beginning. I wouldn't know CW at this stage. Hames also sees Frollo on one page?
 
Comic StoryIn Chinatown / Inspector Dayton (7 pages)
GenreDetective-mystery
CharactersInspector Dayton; Sung Sin; Wang; Anderson Case; Commissioner Conroy; Patch
Script
First LineSung. What are you doing in America?
NotesThe art style changes after four pages, from okay to poor. Possibly Art Peddy in the beginning??? Comparing Bob Powell art on "Sheena" makes it unlikely that he is here UNLESS this is reprinted from much earlier material.
