Captain Marvel Adventures #63

From Fawcett's 1946 cover by C. C. Beck and Pete Costanza, this vibrant image captures Captain Marvel in his red-and-gold costume diving headfirst down a steep rocky slope toward a young woman who's tumbling helplessly, while a film crew with a movie camera watches from the sidelines — teasing the issue's story of "The World's Mightiest Stunt Man." It's a wonderfully playful premise that blends Hollywood spectacle with superhero derring-do, and writer Bill Woolfolk delivers the fun alongside Beck and Costanza's crisp, energetic interior art. A charming snapshot of why Captain Marvel Adventures was boasting the largest circulation of any comic magazine in 1946.
