Captain Marvel Jr.

A short-lived but fondly remembered 1950s revival from Derby Publishing, Captain Marvel Jr. ran for just five issues, showcasing the wholesome adventures of the teen hero who shared the Marvel Family's powers. The series is most associated with the clean, classic linework of artist Kurt Schaffenberger, whose depictions of the Junior Champion defined the character's look for a generation. Though brief, it remains a charming snapshot of the post-Golden Age era, preserving the earnest, family-friendly spirit of the original Fawcett Comics.
