Master Comics #57

Master Comics #57 from Fawcett's January 1945 lineup puts Captain Marvel Jr. front and center, his lightning-bolt costume unmistakable as he bursts dramatically onto the scene while a ghostly white figure looms behind him and two onlookers watch from the foreground. A fallen man with a crutch and scattered newspapers adds to the tension on this cover by Bud Thompson. Inside, the anthology lineup is a strong one — Captain Marvel Jr. faces "his Strange Rival," with Radar, Nyoka, and Bulletman rounding out the bill, all for a dime.
