Issue No. 185

June 1963

The Rival Blackhawk Mascots: Stan, Chuck, Olaf and Chop-Chop, along with Blackie and Bravo, fly (in a Grumman HU-16 Albatross in Blackhawk livery) to help out in a flooded town. Rivalry between Blackie and Bravo hinder rescue attempts until the mascots come together to help capture crooks who caused the flood (by destroying a dam) so they could loot the town in the chaos.

The Last Days of the Seven Blackhawks: Dirg, a criminal escaping authorities from another dimension, gains super powers when he arrives in our dimension. Dirg uses his travel belt to transport Chuck, Andre, Hendrickson and Chop-Chop to his dimension to prevent their capturing him. There the four Blackhawks become super powered but discover only Dirg has the technology to send them back to Earth. They help the local police capture Dirg's gang and recover a dimensional transport belt, but it is a prototype and can only send one of them back. Andre goes to tell Blackhawk how to defeat Dirg. Meanwhile, back on Earth, Dirg has captured the remaining Blackhawks. Andre rescues them and together they capture Dirg and send him back to his own dimension. There the three Blackhawks learn the travel belt is exhausted and they are stranded. Continued in next issue.
