Modern Comics #64

From the pages of what was formerly Military Comics comes this August 1947 entry in Quality Comics' run — Modern Comics #64, with a cover by Reed Crandall that pitches Blackhawk headlong into science-fiction territory. The cover shows a grinning Blackhawk in his signature dark uniform delivering a solid punch to a bizarre, round-faced lunar creature adorned with a red bow, while a bound figure struggles on the ground and a squadronmate looks on from the background. "Blackhawk battles the Invaders from the Moon!" declares the tagline, and Crandall's energetic linework makes the whole improbable clash feel utterly convincing.
