Captain Marvel Jr. #16

Standing atop a wave-battered rock, Captain Marvel Jr. hauls in a massive black sea creature on a fishing line — a striking image that perfectly captures Mac Raboy's dynamic, fluid linework at its 1944 finest. The cover's bold tagline promises that Cap Marvel Jr. captures Pogo, the "Jap Monster of the Deep," setting up what looks to be a high-seas adventure written by Otto Binder with interior art by Al Carreño. It's a vivid, energetic Fawcett package that showcases the young hero in full heroic form against the churning ocean.
