Modern Comics #91

Modern Comics #91 brings Blackhawk face-to-beak with a menacing threat, as this November 1949 issue's cover — penciled by Reed Crandall and inked by Chuck Cuidera — fills the frame with a tense close-up of Blackhawk in his signature blue aviator's cap, staring down a sinister black bird with a sharp orange beak and a cold, unsettling eye. The tagline promises that Blackhawk "stamps out the scourge of the Scorpion," and the cover's tight, dramatic composition makes that confrontation feel genuinely urgent. A fine ten-cent package from Quality Comics for any fan of aviation adventure.
