Blackhawk in "The Horde of the Bat" (Quality; 1956)
Today take some time to step back to a simpler era, when
most comics were just meant to be enjoyed as nothing more than escapist fun. This
tale is from Blackhawk #97 (Feb.1956); originally published by Quality with beautiful art
by Dick Dillin and Chuck Cuidera. Say what you will about the popular series stereotypical
Asian supporting character, but in “The Horde of the Bat” the plucky Chop-Chop heroically
goes undercover (even against Blackhawk's orders) to locate a gang of
bat-winged raiders causing trouble in China, led by the evil Lady Vampira. The Catacombs
acknowledges "Comic Book Plus" as the source of this classic comic
story. Note: The copyright for this issue, its contents and artwork
