Issue No. 240

...

Apr.-May 1968 He Who Must Die: Andre accepts a mission to recover stolen nerve gas from a beautiful woman agent, Natasha, to prove he is not afraid of women. Of course, he bungles it and all the Blackhawks are captured as a result. Andre redeems himself in the end when he discovers that Natasha is really a man and knocks him out. This is a pretty silly story on the whole and doesn't do much with what could have been an interesting examination of Andre's pose as a lady's man covering his real insecurity about women. The Perils of Blackie, the Wonder Bird: A reprint of a story from Issue #111.
