Issue No. 245
Mar.-Apr. 1976Death's Double Deal!: On returning to Blackhawk Island, expecting some rest and relaxation, Hendrickson is strafed by a strange airplane. As the plane flies away, someone drops from it into the sea. The someone turns out to be Hendy's daughter, Elsa. Meanwhile, Olaf has found someone waiting for him at his ski lodge who, apparently, he thought was dead. Hendy calls the Blackhawks back to the island where they learn that Elsa had been attacked by a villain calling himself Anti-man because he has the power of antimatter. Anti-man is the defender of a corrupt government in a Central American country. The Blackhawks go to Santa Culpa and are betrayed by the corrupt rebels to Anti-man. Anti-man's motives for capturing the Blackhawks are personal. He is Boris, a former Blackhawk who thinks he was left to die long ago while on a mission with the team and now he wants revenge. Note that Boris actually was one of the original Blackhawks, dropped after a few issues of Military Comics.
