Modern Comics #88

When Governor Varozek's tyrannical government banishes the last democratic consul from a remote colony, one of the Blackhawks stays behind undercover to investigate the dictator's sinister plans. The squadron soon uncovers a scheme involving the forced labor of innocents and the kidnapping of Dr. Rallway, a brilliant rocket scientist, whom Varozek intends to coerce into developing weapons of mass destruction. The Blackhawks must act fast to rescue the captive scientist and stop the governor's diabolical ambitions before his government can weaponize deadly new technology.

Ezra and his pal Rollo have built themselves a trim little trawler and are confident they can win the upcoming T Cup race—until Dilsbury shows up with a fancy new sloop his father just bought him, and things get competitive fast. When Dilsbury resorts to some underhanded tactics on the water, Ezra and Rollo have to think quick to keep their boat in the running and prove that the best captain wins the day. There's also the small matter of who gets to take Myrna to the yacht club dance afterward, so plenty's at stake in this nautical race.
