About the series
A one-shot from Fawcett Publications published in 1950, The Boy Who Never Heard of Captain Marvel is a clever, self-contained story by frequent Captain Marvel writer Otto Binder. The issue explores a simple, high-concept premise: a boy who has somehow missed all knowledge of the World's Mightiest Mortal, leading to a humorous and meta encounter. It stands as a charming, minor curiosity from the tail end of the Golden Age, offering a playful wink at the character's own ubiquity.
