Crack Comics #54

In this 1948 Quality Comics entry, Reed Crandall's cover captures Captain Triumph in a striking pose — the blond, red-shirted hero straining under the weight of a massive globe, shouldering the troubles of the world quite literally. It's a simple but arresting image that speaks to the grand heroic ambition packed into this ten-cent package. Inside, Bernard Dibble handles full writing and art duties on "Uneasy Lies the Head That Wears a Crown," promising an adventure with some royal intrigue in the mix.
