Master Comics #58

Three kids on a rooftop point skyward in wide-eyed wonder as Captain Marvel Jr. streaks overhead in his blue-and-gold costume — and the speech bubble says it all: "Gee whiz! Here he is! In person! Capt. Marvel Jr.!!" Bud Thompson's cover perfectly captures that sense of neighborhood awe that made Fawcett's superhero line so appealing to young readers in 1945. This February issue also promises Radar the International Policeman, Nyoka, and Bulletman inside, making it a packed anthology from one of the era's busiest publishers.
