Captain Marvel Jr. #18

Mid-air mayhem fills this April 1944 Fawcett cover, with Captain Marvel Jr. delivering a powerful punch to a menacing, winged villain armed with a weapon, while an enormous eagle swoops in from the right and a shattered vessel breaks apart in the waters below. Mac Raboy's cover art crackles with kinetic energy, capturing the young hero in his signature blue-and-red costume mid-flight against a turbulent sky. With the bold tagline promising "Captain Marvel Jr. Battles the Birds of Doom!", this issue makes clear that the threat is anything but ordinary.
