[Andrew999]

This is my first real experience of Blackhawk – although the name was familiar to me. I really liked Reed Crandell’s art – never a wasted frame. In Men From The Future, Rhodl, a perky blonde in a stealth bomber, invades and decides to take over a whole country – okay by me. Despite being made a very generous offer, Blackhawk goes on the offensive – but will it be enough to save the day?

The Weird Invaders from Inferno, looking like Tory Party canvassers, seek to stop an underground tunnel linking two presumably Latin states. Watching on as the Blackhawks leap into action is the slinky snaky Madame Mainot – what can she be up to? As Blackhawk says, trade is the best augury for peace – but does anybody listen?

In the final episode, the Blackhawks are faced with sea monsters, missing ships and a scheming science technician. With giant eels and sea horses as big as houses, are our trusty heroes in too deep?
