When a famous European hypnotist named Professor Schnitzel arrives claiming to exorcise the curse, Blackhawk realizes the man intends to use his hypnotic powers to control the superstitious miners and steal their treasure. The issue includes a comedic subplot involving a nervous man being frightened by a woman dressed as a ghost in his home.
The Blackhawks undertake a peacetime mission to tunnel through impassable mountains and unite two nations—until a mysterious saboteur sets off hidden explosives and kidnaps their leader deep into the heart of the range. Blackhawk awakens in a hidden underground city within the mountains, where the villain Maztla reveals a stunning secret that threatens everything the team has worked for. Can the Blackhawks uncover the truth behind the tunnel's curse and rescue their commander before it's too late?
