The Weapons-Master

The Weapons-Master is a Silver Age DC villain who made his debut as an adversary of Blackhawk and his legendary squadron, living up to his name through mastery of arms and combat hardware.

A Silver Age villain with a name that says it all, The Weapons-Master first clashed with readers — and with Blackhawk and his crew — in 1967, courtesy of the sharp creative team of Bob Haney and Dick Dillin. Over a span of roughly thirteen years, this DC antagonist carved out a niche across some eclectic corners of the publisher's lineup, from the aerial adventure of Blackhawk to the pages of Superman's Girl Friend, Lois Lane. With a key issue among their appearances and the distinction of sharing pages with stalwarts like Blackhawk, Chuck, and Hendrickson, The Weapons-Master is a compact but collector-worthy piece of the Silver Age puzzle — the kind of character whose scarcity only adds to the intrigue.
