Speaking of clones, this guy [Black Eagle] has to be a clone of the Australian character, Sir Falcon. Exactly the same costume except the bird is supposed to be an eagle and not a falcon. And its black. And who is the second character, O Sombra, the Shadow? You guessed it, that s the Australian Shadow! Note perfect. Even to his name being Jimmy. But what is really jaw-dropping is the ads. You open a comic book,can't read the words and you have a short comic of a cute little boy showing a cute little girl a razor and blades. And she appears delighted. After the shock, you think about it. OK, logic says that 'o Papai val adorar!' has to mean, ' Oh, Dad will love it!' and they are talking about giving them to Dad for a present, which seems a little better, until you think about ita bit more. Who came up with the idea to advertise razors in a comic aimed at children? And small children at that. And where will they get the money from? In fact, the more I think about it, the worse it gets. Oh, and you get a free Razor Blade key ring! And they though that was a new idea in 1977. I think I'll go and have a lie down now.
