Captain Marvel Jr. #74

From Fawcett's June 1949 lineup comes this intriguing chapter in the Captain Marvel Jr. saga, with cover art by Kurt Schaffenberger. The cover sets an unsettling scene: a bewildered Captain Marvel Jr. stands in the foreground, cape billowing, as an enormous crowd of men, women, and children streams past him — overloaded vehicles, aircraft overhead, and a city skyline in the distance suggesting a mass exodus of staggering scale. The bold caption asks "What is the Mystery of the Migration Madness?" — a question that gives this issue a wonderfully eerie, off-kilter energy that feels unlike any ordinary superhero punch-up.
