Military Comics #29
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeA 1944 wartime advertisement for the Morrow Coaster Brake, tucked inside Military Comics #29, showcases a whimsical, cartoon-style breakdown of bicycling history—complete with early pedal-less models, paratrooper-equipped sky bikes, and the curious Caliope Whistle. The ad, illustrated with playful flair by Alex Kotzky on both pencils and inks, offers a quirky slice of mid-century ingenuity, all framed within a cover that blends wartime themes with a touch of mechanical fantasy.
The Blackhawks pursue the dangerous Xanukhara and a briefcase containing a power that lets those who possess it glimpse the future—a secret so catastrophic that they've fought to keep it hidden from the world. When the briefcase resurfaces in the hands of a man named Ganga, Xanukhara returns to claim it, setting off a deadly chase that drags the Blackhawks back into battle against her. With Xanukhara alive and the contents of the briefcase falling into multiple hands, the stakes have never been higher for keeping this world-altering secret secure.
When the celebrated singing group the Dancing Dawns arrives at Camp Caraway for a U.S.O. show, Private Dogtag wins the lottery to be their official escort—but his excitement takes a bizarre turn when a mad doctor's experimental procedure scrambles his emotions, making him laugh when he should cry and weep when he should smile. As Dogtag tries to navigate his new role while battling his inverted feelings, he'll face a Major with romantic designs on the sisters and far worse trouble lurking in the shadows. Can he keep his wits about him long enough to protect the girls and himself from danger?
PT boat sailors Perry and Paul end up stranded in a pygmy village after sacrificing their vessel to save a supply ship from a Japanese torpedo—only to find themselves caught between the local King Hotlip and invading Japanese forces who've pushed the Marines into the mountains. When the Japanese brutalize the pygmy king, an unlikely alliance forms, and Perry devises a daring plan to use King Hotlip's warriors and a clever signal to trap the enemy between the pygmies' surprise attack and the Marines' counteroffensive.
A battle-damaged B-26 bomber limps back toward England after a bombing run over Europe, but the pilot faces an impossible choice when the controls fail near the airfield. With his crew already bailed out, he's forced to ditch the crippled plane—landing in a pasture with decidedly unhelpful four-legged inhabitants. Fred Guardineer brings wartime mishap and rough humor to this tale of a flyer's unexpected detour home.
