The Stunt-Girl CounterSpies Go Back to Their Roots...
...unfortunately, for one of them, the roots include Nazis!
Remember, when this story from Gold Key's Man from U.N.C.L.E. #19 came out in 1968, it was only 23 years since the end of World War II, so those pesky Nazis were still pretty spry, especially in spy fiction!
For example: Baron Strucker was battling Nick Fury both in the 1960s as the head of HYDRA in Nick Fury: Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., and in the 1940s in Sgt Fury and His Howling Commandos as the commander of the Wehrmacht's Blitz Squad, created as a counterpoint to the Howling Commandos!
Blackhawk, himself a WWII vet, was still fighting various hidden Nazi factions until his first series ended in 1968!
Nazis also popped up in the Matt Helm, Flint, and James Bond films, as well as the Man from U.N.C.L.E., Mission: Impossible, and I Spy tv series.
