Modern Comics #81
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeModern Comics #81 is an anthology featuring multiple stories. The lead story, "Blackhawk Battles Colonel Cloud and His Fog of Destruction," shows the Blackhawk pilot engaging in combat against an enemy commander wielding a destructive fog weapon. The issue also includes a "Dogtag" humor feature involving a boy and tutor struggling with arithmetic, and a romantic comedy story about a woman named Myrna Moore who has arranged a romantic rendezvous with a man named Dean Dilsbury, only to discover his infidelity and end their relationship in dramatic fashion.
In the tiny Leuchtenberg Republic, a tyrannical Colonel Cloud schemes to seize power by weaponizing the weather itself—keeping crops withered and a peace-loving people desperate and divided. When locals Peter and Jan Zell smuggle word to Blackhawk, the famous aviator and his fighting companions fly in to face down Cloud's thugs and uncover the truth behind the unnaturally persistent storms strangling the farmland. What invention lies behind the fog of destruction, and can the Blackhawks stop Cloud before his iron grip closes over the entire nation?
Will Bragg, a blowhard who's never actually raised a pig in his life, gets caught in his own lie when he's roped into judging a pig show at the last minute. Forced to wing it in front of an audience—and the skeptical Miss Gissel—Will scrambles through the competition with increasingly desperate improvisations. What follows is a chaotic day of mistaken compliments, a runaway prize pig, and one knockabout lesson in humility that proves sometimes the best judges are the luckiest fools.
