Notes

• Blackhawk:
  • In "Captured By Count Hokoy", Stanislaus makes reference to an earlier adventure in which he was blind for a length of time.
  • Stanislaus is head-konked unconscious, for the first time, with a thrown handgun. Blackhawk is head-konked unconscious, for the seventh time, with a pistol butt. Being a Blackhawk is dangerous.
• Death Patrol:
  • Del Van Dyne is visible for the first time since Military Comics #41.
  • Besides Del, only Boris, Hank, Hotintot, and Jackie are visible in the story.
  • Hank persistently calls Jackie "Junior," and it's not really possible to tell if that's a still nickname or not.
• First issue for Will Bragg by Paul Gustavson.
• Also featured in this issue of Modern Comics were:
  • Johnny Doughboy, by Bernard Dibble
  • "Mountains of Glass, Part 2" (text story)
