Modern Comics #51 (July 1946) is an anthology featuring multiple stories. "Blackhawk Visits Plambar, Ancient City of Evil!" depicts the Blackhawk team discovering explosives in a motorcycle and confronting criminals in a shadowy urban setting. Another story involves a taxi driver picking up a woman who directs him to her grandmother's homestead, leading to comedic misadventures with a ladder and superstitious behavior. A third feature follows action sequences with characters engaged in combat, explosions, and rope-based escapes, culminating in confrontations with armed adversaries and references to a stolen motorcycle and cash box.

Contains 7 stories
Plambar--Ancient City of Evil
15 pp · Adventure, War
Jorp (first appearancevillaindeath)

Blackhawk and his team touch down in Plambar, an ancient city where centuries of worship toward an evil god have left the population resigned to crime, violence, and lawlessness as simply the way of things. When one of the Blackhawks is captured and interrogated by the city's hidden ruler, Jorp, the team must uncover the truth behind Plambar's dark reputation and decide how to free a people who've lost faith in justice itself. A 1946 adventure that asks whether even the mightiest heroes can awaken a city to hope.

Ghost Town
8 pp · Humor
Choo-Choo

Choo-Choo accepts a mysterious entertainment job from a man named Jordan and finds herself at an abandoned house in the middle of nowhere—but what begins as a spooky evening takes a decidedly eerie turn when she encounters the charming Rekk Buckler and a ghostly showdown with the vengeful Horsehead Harry. This 1946 humor tale spins supernatural comedy, mistaken identities, and more than a few tricks up its sleeve as our hapless heroine tries to make sense of a night that may be far stranger than it first appears.

Help Death Patrol
4 pp · Humor, Aviation, War

When Junior of the Death Patrol takes on a skywriting assignment to advertise Ajax vacuum cleaners across the city, his aerial antics go spectacularly wrong—and trigger a genuine emergency that the patrol initially mistakes for another false alarm. As the young pilot frantically tries to warn his squadmates about a catastrophic dam overflow, he'll need all his flying skills and their firepower to prevent disaster.

Letter To Bing Bang
8 pp · Humor, Teen

A hotheaded young man writes a scathing letter to Bing Bang to blow off steam—but accidentally mails it instead of tearing it up, setting off a wild chain of misunderstandings and close calls. With help from his pal Rollo, he'll stop at nothing to intercept the letter before Bing Bang gets his hands on it and learns exactly what's written inside.
