Notes

• Rugoth
  • In an unrecorded earlier adventure, the Blackhawks helped to liberate Frangastan from the tyranny of its conquerors, the wild Cymriotes. The Frangastani people had declared their old gods to be false and powerless, and had paid only lip service to the gods of the Cymriotes, thus now had no gods. So the unemployed priests of Frangastan commissioned a new idol and established a new cult, that of Rugoth, the God of Greed.
  • This is Fear's sixth appearance.^[1]
• Glittar, like Cornigo, Colomba, and a few other nation/cities in the Quality Universe, seems to be loosely based on Monaco.
  • Andre gets head-konked unconscious, for at least the fifth time,^[2] with a tommy gun.
• Mr. Powder is disintegrated with his own device.
  • Whatever city this story is set in, the Blackhawks remain there long enough for a new big building to get at least halfway constructed, from scratch.
  • Andre hits an invisible mid-air obstacle, his third plane crash.^[3]
  • Blackhawk gets a gunshot wound, for the fifth time,^[4] in the chest. He is grateful that it's "only a flesh wound."
  • Two more Grumman Skyrockets are lost, for a running total of 26.
• Also featured in this issue of Blackhawk was:
  • Blackhawk: "The Storm King is Trapped" (text story)
