Gwandanaland Comics #1578

This handsome Gwandanaland Comics collection brings together issues #78–83 of the Fawcett golden-age series Captain Marvel Jr., making a solid run of classic stories conveniently accessible in one volume. The reproduced cover from Captain Marvel Jr. #83 sets an immediate tone of high adventure — the caped hero streaks through the air above a rooftop gallows scene, while figures below look on in alarm, with the original Fawcett blurb promising a tale about "the man who lived history." For fans of golden-age superhero comics, this 2018 reprint is a welcoming way to spend time with one of Fawcett's most enduring characters.
