In Blackhawk #3: "Blackout", published by DC Comics in May 1988, writer and artist Howard Chaykin concludes his provocative reimagining of the World War II-era hero Janos Prohaska, known as Blackhawk. This final installment of the Blood & Iron miniseries escalates the stakes as Blackhawk and the newly introduced Lady Blackhawk, a Soviet agent, confront a Nazi plot to detonate an atomic bomb atop the Empire State Building. Chaykin's narrative delves into themes of political paranoia and moral ambiguity, portraying Prohaska as a complex figure grappling with accusations of communist sympathies and the shadows of his past. The issue is notable for its mature content, including graphic violence and adult themes, reflecting Chaykin's signature storytelling style that challenges traditional comic book conventions.
