-- Summary: "Madam X" is a grounded bomber upon which
"whiz-bombs" have been inappropriately mounted. It has been
damaged and its crew is injured, and the plane is scheduled
to be dismantled. A Japanese Zero crash-lands near the
base, and a woman survives, managing to make the men think
they've captured secret plans. After the squadron has left
to take advantage of the plans, the woman steals a gun and
kills the radio operator. The crew of Madam X figures out
what has happened, and leaves sick bay in a suicide mission
to spring the ambush the Japanese have set up. On page 7, a
Japanese radioman says, "Silver disks-- our greatest
arsenal gone! Shoot down that plane at any cost!" The
whiz-bomb shown in p. 1 does seem to be disc-shaped, though
from the title and cover art we would expect flying saucer
UFOs. -- Call no.: PN6728.1.F5W5no.112

Japanese Zeros.
"The Flight of the Silver Saucers" (Captain Wings) 10 p. in
Wings Comics, no. 112 (1950). -- Title from cover. --
Though the art is substantially the same, this story is a
thorough re-write of the Captain Wings story in Wings
Comics, no. 53 (Jan. 1945), where it is signed "L. Elias."
-- Summary: "Madam X" is a grounded bomber upon which
"whiz-bombs" have been inappropriately mounted. It has been
damaged and its crew is injured, and the plane is scheduled
to be dismantled. A Japanese Zero crash-lands near the
base, and a woman survives, managing to make the men think
they've captured secret plans. After the squadron has left
to take advantage of the plans, the woman steals a gun and
kills the radio operator. The crew of Madam X figures out
what has happened, and leaves sick bay in a suicide mission
to spring the ambush the Japanese have set up. On page 7, a
Japanese radioman says, "Silver disks-- our greatest
arsenal gone! Shoot down that plane at any cost!" The
whiz-bomb shown in p. 1 does seem to be disc-shaped, though
from the title and cover art we would expect flying saucer
