Master Comics #73

Master Comics #73 from Fawcett's October 1946 lineup features a striking cover by Bud Thompson, showing Captain Marvel Jr. — arms coolly crossed in his blue and gold costume — facing down a massive, toga-clad villain wielding a scepter, with a lion lurking nearby and a flaming altar in the foreground. The scene sets an ancient, arena-like stage that feels both grandiose and genuinely ominous, teasing the featured story "The Ghosts of Evil." Rounding out the package are backup adventures starring Radar, Nyoka, and Bulletman, making this a satisfying anthology package from one of Fawcett's most dependable anthologies.
