Decent issue!
War Wheels were used in a Blackhawk issue (and cover) and maybe other comics.
I also enjoyed the Heap story, especially when the Heap wrestles down an elephant, giving some idea of the Heap's strength.
My good friend Michael West collected Airboy Comics and I read many of his issues. Thanks for sharing Airboy again! |
