Blackhawk #209

From 1965, Blackhawk #209 promises high-flying mayhem with the story "King Condor's Winged Furies." The cover by Dick Dillin and Charles Cuidera puts the Blackhawks in immediate peril — clad in their signature red uniforms, they scatter as a monstrous half-bird, half-human King Condor swoops down, dropping a bomb and deflecting gunfire with terrifying ease. That bold cover blurb — "An Old Blackhawk Foe Returns!" — makes it clear this winged menace has unfinished business with the team.
