Captain Cannuck Vol 1#11 1980 Grade VG+ 4.5 Price$8.00

exllent CHARIOTS OF FIRE begins. OPERATION EXTERMINATION&: C.C. investigates a possible security leak, only to discover the leak is a little boy being controlled by aliens -- the very aliens who had accidentally given C.C. augmented power. Trying to get the boy and his dad to safety, C.C. is beset by a mob of ordinary people, under the mind-control of the aliens. Nice beginning to the series' most flamboyant epic; eerie and exciting. Interesting idea that, since the action takes place in Quebec city, some of the dialogue is in French (and it probably helps to have a rudimentary grasp of the language). Back Up: BEYONDcontinues.

Captain Cannuck Vol 1#12 1980 Grade VG 4 Price $8.00 TIME FACTOR" ("CHARIOTS OF FIRE continues"): As C.I.S.O. tries to alert other governments to the alien threat, C.C. attempts to make contact and to reason with them (a very interesting idea, given that most heroes in such stories immediately plot to blow up the alien baddies). However, C.C. falls through a time portal with bad-guy alien Nyro-Ka and they both end up in New Brunswick, circa the 11th Century. Meanwhile, everyone else thinks C.C. is dead. Gold has a cameo. Last Comely script. Back Up: "BEYOND" continues.

Captain Cannuck Vol 1#13 1981 2 copies of this book Grade VG-3.5 Price $8.00 Grade VG 4 Price $2.25 CHARIOTS OF FIRE" concludes. "EXILES": While earth governments unite to battle the alien menace, and outfit a moon base for an assault on the alien spaceship, C.C. -- still in the 11th Century -- helps some Micmac Indians battle Vikingg invaders. He manages to return to his time...on board the alien mother ship! His actions save the day, but his only hope for survival is to leap back into the time portal for a destination...unknown. 1st Freeman script is good, and the historical storyline (and how it's presented) is intended as a homage to ic strip legend Harold ("Prince Valiant") Foster. Many supporting characters from the series crop up. New cover logo. No Back Up this issue.

Captain Cannuck Vol 1#14 1981 Grade VG 4 Price $8.00 FIRE-FIGHT: C.C. stumbles on a deserted contemporary Ontario town, is drafted to fight a raging forest fire, and gets involved in attempted murder and the stealing of an ancient Aztec artifact. The development of the (plex) story, mingling the various elements (the eerie opening few pages --with its macabre foreshadowing -- the man-against-nature fire-fight, and the man-against-man climax) and an actually bonafide mystery-detective story (plus an edge-of-the-seat climax) make this arguably one of the best of the issues! A nice job by Freeman on only his second outing as scripter. Intended as a change of direction story, with C.C. now in modern times (and the one weakness, as it's not altogether representative of the body of the issues). Back Up: BEYOND continues...and is to-be-continued (eventually it was concluded in the Beyond graphic novel published in 2016). LAST PUBLISHED ISSUE! (until...)
