Captain Marvel Jr. #14

Fawcett's December 1943 holiday issue gives Captain Marvel Jr. a truly festive send-off, with Mac Raboy's cover depicting the blue-and-gold-suited young hero striding alongside a fully costumed Santa Claus, both of them hauling bulging sacks stuffed with toys — hobby horses, dolls, and more — all framed by lush holly and berries. The cover's warm seasonal spirit is made explicit by the cheerful banner at the bottom: "Capt. Marvel Jr. wishes his readers a Merry Christmas!" Inside, Otto Binder brings his storytelling craft to "The Sinister Stamps," making this a wartime holiday package that pairs genuine yuletide charm with superhero adventure.
