Issue No. 201
October 1964The Enemy Blackhawk Creatures: A mad scientist turns Andre, Hendrickson and Chop-Chop (why is it always these three?) into energy creatures to do his bidding. He returns them to human form and then shrinks the entire team down to action figure size. The writers must have been watching the cult movie Dr. Cyclops when they wrote this.
Detached Service Diary - Last Shot for Hendrickson: An assassin called the Sniper captures the Blackhawks in a weird domed jungle in the middle of the arctic and uses them as bait to force the team's marksman, Hendrickson, into a duel. Only, being a criminal he can't play fair and rigs Hendy's rifle to blind him and paralyze his shooting hand. Hendy out-smarts the Sniper. He knows he can't shoot accurately so he blows a hole in the dome and causes an avalanche which lets the rest of the team escape. A good story.
