Continuing my goal of having every Black max installment, here we are in 1971 - and what a silly development we have.
Tim Wilson is sent back to London to recuperate - nothing wrong with that.
At exactly the same time Black Max travels there - hmmm...
And he's staying in a "sinister gothic mansion" near Tower Bridge - double hmmm...
Max has a double task of having his Bats guiding the Zepplins through the foggy nights and to capture Proffesor Dutton, who can make the Bats ten times as intellegent - don't have any trouble with that.
But Wilson is hanging round by a gun emplacement that just happens to be right next to Max's mansion - triple hmmm....
And when the guns open fire is told to "turn away... or the flash may hurt your eyes". So he does and, at the moment of the flash, he just so happens to be looking up at the very window that Max is looking out of - quadruple hmmm....
Very, very silly.
But great fun too.
Only other thing of note this issue is Adam Eterno, which is curious by being a self-contained one episode story. Never came across this before and dunno if it was commonplace? Anyway, lovely art, with the old fella suffering troubles in ancient Rome, with the gold threat being a piddly lil' dagger.
