Synopsis for "The Domino Principle!"
Circa 1940-Aug-22 at the very earliest, or 1940-Sep-05 at the very latest, a German barmaid named Helga, who had met Blackhawk in early July 1940, graduated from the Leipzig Project, after intensive training in espionage, forgery, hand-to-hand fighting, marksmanship, photography, etc. Then three Blackhawks flew to a base in North Africa, while Andre flew to Algiers in a tuxedo, to do espionage, but he got vamped and out-espionaged by this Helga chick, now dba Domino II. "It was just months ago that the original Domino had been killed," and that was in [1940-June-22 at the very earliest]. She captured Andre, lured Blackhawk, and captured him too, in a hotel room (?). Hendrickson sneaked in to the rescue but Blackhawk had already broken down Domino's intensive brainwashing by making goo-goo eyes at her.
