Modern Comics #89 is an anthology featuring multiple stories. The lead story stars Blackhawk, who must stop a deadly "Feast of Jugar" plot involving a countess and stolen military secrets. A second story titled "Wildbrag" follows a domestic situation where a man's wife surprises him at home with unexpected guests, leading to comedic complications involving corsages and party preparations.

Contains 4 stories
The Feast of Jugar
13 pp · Adventure, War
Jugar (first appearancevillaindeath)Rulana (first appearancevillaindeath)

When relief food bound for starving Jugaria falls into the hands of a ruthless black market ring, the American Relief Team calls in the Blackhawks to protect a vital supply shipment—but a shadowy conspiracy reaches far deeper into the country's power structure than anyone expected. As the Blackhawks fly their cargo into danger, they'll uncover a plot that threatens not just the starving people of Jugaria, but the very stability of the nation itself.

Clothes Make the Man
5 pp · Humor, Teen

When a teen schemes to keep a rival away from a party—and away from Myrna—he enlists Rollo's help to sabotage a free tuxedo with a gimmick that backfires spectacularly. As the plot thickens with switched boxes, allergic reactions, and outsmarted outschemers, Ezra discovers that the best-laid plans often have a way of surprising everyone involved. A quick, clever romp that proves sometimes the real fashion statement is knowing when to fold.
