Comments:
This story is continued from Blackhawk #245.

This story reveals that Boris was a member of the Blackhawks during World War II and was replaced by Chop Chop.

Synopsis:
Five members of the Blackhawks have been captured by Anti-Man in Santa Culpa. Blackhawk baits the villain, who was once a member of their team, into attacking. Blackhawk survives the attack, and Anti-Man leaves to meet with Professor Ortega who has been studying his powers. Blackhawk and the others then escape from their cell.

Chuck, Stan, and Olaf help the government troops fight off a rebel attack while Blackhawk and Chopper face Anti-Man. While Chopper distracts the villain, Blackhawk gets in close and knocks him out before he can use his powers. Rather than be captured, Anti-Man uses his powers to make himself a suicide bomb. Blackhawk and Chopper get away in time to survive the blast which claims the life of their foe.
