| Comic Story | The Temple of Doom / Blackhawk (7 pages) |
| Synopsis | Tavis, a defense contractor to the nations of the free world, demonstrates a new “ducted-fan aircraft” (an individual flying platform) to Blackhawk and his men. Ushering them aboard a larger version of the craft that seats all seven Blackhawks, Tavis (from a safe vantage point) activates a remote control that spirits them off to an unnamed Communist nation. There, the waiting General Molok, a dictator and would-be filmmaker, forces the Blackhawks to perform in a propaganda film - with deadly consequences for the Magnificent Seven. |
| Genre | Adventure; War |

| Script | Joe Millard |
| Pencils | Dick Dillin |
| Inks | Chuck Cuidera |
| First Line | Moloch the Destroyer was the cruelest of ancient gods! But even more savage was its revival in the hands of a modern demon... General Molok! |
| Notes | Story-ending Blackhawks' flying song: "We've met the enemy's snare... We've tripped the trap and there... We nailed the wall of freedom tight... We're Blackhawks!" Unlike the "generic looking" Communist military official on the issue's cover, General Molok looks more like a "communist military-garbed" version of famed film director Alfred Hitchcock. ...Coincidence? |

| Notes | Plot-wise, this story bears a strong resemblance to the three-part Mickey Mouse serial "The Pirates of Tabasco Bay" by Carl Fallberg and Paul Murry, from WALT DISNEY'S COMICS AND STORIES (Dell, 1940 series) #191-193 (August thru October 1956) and reprinted in DISNEY MASTERS (Fantagraphics, 2018 series) #7 "Mickey Mouse: The Pirates of Tabasco Bay" (2019) [https://www.comics.org/issue/1936431/#3392797], where Black Pete's real pirates take the place of mock pirates scheduled to perform at a "Pirate Days Festival" concocted by Mickey Mouse to drum up tourism for a faded waterfront resort town. These stories would have appeared just months apart. Story-ending Blackhawks' flying song: "When ancient evils come by sea... We're still alert to keep men free... We're Blackhawks!" |
