☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeBlackhawk: Blood & Iron collects the 2020 miniseries that reimagines the classic Blackhawk squadron in a gritty, Cold War-era espionage thriller. Written by Robert Venditti and illustrated by Nick Derington, the story follows the original Blackhawk team members—including Andre Blanc-Dumont, Janos Prohaska, and Olaf Friedriksen—as they are reactivated by the U.S. government to confront a new threat involving a mysterious weapon. The series also features unexpected guest appearances by Batman, Superman, and other DC heroes, weaving them into the Blackhawks' high-stakes world of aerial combat and covert operations.
In "Citizen Jan," Blackhawk and Steve Claiborne clash in the aftermath of Marcia Rossiter’s death, testing the limits of loyalty as the Blackhawks are summoned to meet President Truman. Meanwhile, a shadowy Nazi faction moves to seize a critical LSD shipment, setting the stage for a tense, high-stakes confrontation. Written by Martin Pasko and illustrated by Rick Burchett, with inks by John Nyberg, colors by Tom Ziuko, and letters by Steve Haynie, this 2020 issue features a striking cover by Howard Chaykin.
In "And a Time to Gather Stones Together," the Blackhawks return to Singapore carrying the wounded Marcia Rossiter, whose fate hangs in the balance as Natalie grapples with personal turmoil. Amid the war's shadow, a hidden Nazi faction pushes dangerous experiments with LSD, adding a chilling layer to the mission.
In "Mr. Blackhawk Goes to Washington," the legendary hero takes on a new role as a government operative, trading the battlefield for the corridors of power—just as a shadowy Nazi cell prepares a deadly ambush. With Steve Claiborne (Leslie Richardson) pulled from the case, Blackhawk must navigate a web of politics and peril in a story that keeps the stakes high and the tension tight.
In "Kissoff -- That's a Russian Word, Isn't It?" from Blackhawk: Blood and Iron, the Blackhawks navigate a tense intelligence operation as President Truman briefs them on espionage threats, only to see the mission derailed when C.I.G. operatives abduct Natalie Reed. Amid wartime paranoia, a shadowy Nazi scheme to seize LSD unfolds, setting the stage for a high-stakes game of deception and danger.
In "Gremlins at Twelve O'Clock," the Blackhawks are thrown into chaos when a dose of LSD leaves all but Olaf disoriented and battling hallucinations, while a Nazi agent slips away with a dangerous shipment—leaving the team fractured and their mission in jeopardy.
