Black Max - barminess reaches a new height


In the 24th April 1971 edition, we finally get to see how come Wilson never spotted Max's castle before, even though he'd flown over the area only a couple of issues ago with no sign of it - "It's not a real island at all! Just earth and vegetation on some kind of steel platform... and transported by airships!"
Bonkers.
Aside from how the heck you'd go to all that trouble of building a castle on a bunch of zepplins, there's also why, in that it served no purpose, being totally blown up a few weeks later.
But, we're talking early 70's boys comics, and logic had flown out the window long before.
