Issue No. 212

September 1965

Master of the Mold Monster: A criminal scientist's "bio-grid" mold lets him easily change the appearance of any crook completely. He uses it to change a criminal into an exact duplicate of Blackhawk. But the team sees this and catches him and forces him into the mold, only something goes wrong and he's changed into a monster (thus explaining the misleading cover that shows Blackhawk being turned into a monster, it wasn't the real Blackhawk).

Combat Diary - Chop-Chop's Suicide Mission: In the Pacific theater, Chop-Chop poses as a Japanese pilot to infiltrate an air base to get information about the next attack. (A good example of American ignorance of Asian races, the assumption that the Japanese and Chinese are indistingquishable and that the Japanese would not recognize Chop-Chop as different from them.) Chop-Chop, as a disguised Japanese pilot, is sent on a kamikaze attack against his comrades, the Blackhawks. He signals the team by releasing smoke in puffs in Morse code.
