The Marvel Family #14
In "The Disappearing Barges," Captain Tootsie takes center stage as kids from a rival school sabotage a sock hop by stealing the ice cream and Tootsie Rolls meant for the celebration. With his trademark flair, the hero tracks down the culprits, rescues the treats, and even replaces the ones that were eaten—proving that even the sweetest victories come with a punch of justice. Penciled by C. C. Beck and inked by Pete Costanza, this 1947 Fawcett classic features the dynamic duo behind the art, with a cover by Costanza that captures the lighthearted mischief and heroics of the moment.
