She uses her powers as Miss America to stop them. Zazzy joins the Death Patrol, and waves off all warnings about how everybody who does that dies. Meanwhile the Luftwaffe attacks London, using a flat-topped dirigible, lurking in the stratosphere, as both a bomber and a flying airfield. Del van Dyne figures out what's going on, and leads the Death Patrol in an attack on this thing. Wearing special, heated, oxygen-supplied jumpsuits, they land their Hawker Hurricanes on the super-zeppelin's flight deck, and overpower the crew.

The carrier's captain, claiming to be disgusted by his superiors and by Naziism in general , tells them that this stratospheric bombing sortie is just a diversion, from a dirigible-mounted infantry invasion, from Calais to Dover, starting in two hours. Leaving Slick to guard the captured crew, Del and Butch and Gramps and Hank and Zazzy take off to attack this invasion.

But one of the dirigible's crew manages to headkonk Slick with a thrown wrench, and soon they all are free. Plus the captain lied about the dirigible invasion, but now radios Calais to get some antiaircraft guns set up. The Death Patrol hits a hot welcome over Calais, but breaks off quickly and returns to the hovering carrier, which also has a hot welcome for them, but they shoot it down. Slick is still aboard at the time, and one big explosion also takes out Zazzy's plane. Zazzy parachutes to safety, but Slick is gone for good. Sign In Don't have an account? Start a Wiki.

PODLOMATIC #3: Comics & History

In , a three-issue mini-series by Howard Chaykin re-imagined the team during World War II yet again, this time with a notably more adult and gritty take on the characters. Chaykin, for the most part, eschewed the team dynamic so familiar to Blackhawk readers, instead crafting a politically charged espionage thriller that focused prominently on Blackhawk and a new version of Lady Blackhawk.

Post-war stories respecting Chaykin's continuity followed in Action Comics Weekly —, —, and —, as well as in a monthly series that restarted with an issue 1 and ran 16 issues from March, , to August, Since , mostly modern hints of the team have appeared, usually in the form of the "Blackhawk Express" courier service, or the time-displaced Lady Blackhawk. One of the best examples of this is the s appearance of team member Chop-Chop in a few issues of DC's Hawkworld series.

Other Blackhawk air pilot groups have been shown during present time or alternate future events such as Our Worlds At War and Kingdom Come. It is unknown which connection beyond homage and inspiration, if any, those groups have to the classic Blackhawks. Blackhawk at this time is an extension of Checkmate.

Blackhawk made an appearance in The Brave and the Bold Vol. During the battle, Chuck sacrifices himself to destroy a missile. During the same storyline in , a heroine named Blackhawk appears, battling Sinestro. In September as part of its New 52 publishing revamp, DC Comics launched a monthly series titled Blackhawks with no direct ties to the previous incarnations. The book is set in the present day with no appearances by, or mention of, prior Blackhawks, although there is a new version of the Lady Blackhawk character.

The book shares the setting of the rebooted DC Universe continuity set up in the Flashpoint mini-series. With the overwhelming forces of Nazi Germany flooding into Poland in September, , only the Polish Air Force remains as the last major line of resistance. Captain von Tepp and his Butcher Squadron swarm the skies in response, outnumbering the Polish four to one. The Germans decimate their foes until just one lone plane — painted jet black — remains.

After gallantly shooting down six Nazi planes, the mysterious pilot is forced to crash land on the countryside. Running to a nearby farmhouse, he's tracked from the air by von Tepp, who drops a bomb and destroys the building. The pilot locates his dead sister and mortally wounded brother inside. He vows to kill von Tepp before disappearing into the darkness.

Months later, with most of Europe collapsing under the might of the Nazis, the pilot reemerges with his own private squadron and "like an angel of vengeance, Blackhawk and his men swoop down out of nowhere, their guns belching death, and on their lips the dreaded song of the Blackhawks. In France, Captain von Tepp receives a note from Blackhawk demanding the release of one of Blackhawk's men or face death.

Infuriated, von Tepp orders the prisoner's execution by firing squad. At dawn, the man and two others, including a cool-headed English Red Cross nurse identified as "Ann" in Military Comics 3 , are lined against a wall and mocked by von Tepp.

As his men prepare to fire, the song of the Blackhawks fills the air:. Over land, over sea, We fight to make men free, Of danger we don't care We're Blackhawks!

It's there that Blackhawk challenges the Nazi captain to an aerial duel.

During the ensuring dogfight, both of the men's planes are crippled and forced to crash. On the ground, von Tepp and Blackhawk, both badly injured, draw guns. Von Tepp falls in a hail of bullets.

Blackhawk's team is mostly depicted in Military Comics 1 as shadowy, nondescript soldiers, save for an Englishman named Baker who's never seen or mentioned again. A sixth, Boris, is also shown, but, like Baker, only makes a singular appearance. The designer of their planes, Vladim, is also mentioned.

By Military Comics 3 October , the roster is firmed up and it's stated that seven men belong to the team. The group also receives a Chinese mascot and cook, Chop-Chop, when his plane happens to crash on Blackhawk Island during a desperate run for help.

In Blackhawk 50 March , the team's origin is documented. His sidekick in the squadron is Stanislaus, a "brilliant young student" from the University of Warsaw. After facing defeat against the Nazis, Blackhawk attempts to flee to Russia , only to discover that Russian forces are invading from the east. He then seeks refuge in England where he attempts to join the Royal Air Force. They pool their resources and buy planes, setting up a base of operations first on a small island in the Atlantic Ocean, then later in the Pacific.

They're eventually joined by Chop-Chop, described in this account as having "fled from China when the Japanese overpowered the Nationalist army. Having joined the Polish Air Force at a young age, he had already become a national hero by alongside his trusted friends Stanislaus Drozdowski and Kazimierc "Zeg" Zegota-Januszajtis.

Prior to the outbreak of World War II, the trio travel across Europe, providing freelance service and even fighting for a time in the Spanish Civil War as members of the Communist party. At one point finding himself in America in hopes of gathering funds to build a European resistance group, Prohaska is framed for a series of murders. With the help of the Sandman , he's ultimately exonerated, but a report soon surfaces that he has been shot down and killed by Nazis somewhere in the Mediterranean.

When the forces of Nazi Germany invade Poland in , Prohaska returns home to help defend his homeland. It's there he meets the others who will form the foundation of the Blackhawk Squadron. In the midst of the war, Prohaska finds himself under suspicion by the U. The victory restores Blackhawk's reputation.
