C.C. Beck cvr; Jack Kirby, Dick Briefer art; 1st Captain Marvel in own title, Sivana app.Believe it or not at one time Captain Marvel outsold Superman. DC was so threatened by the Big Red Cheese that they sued Fawcett for copyright infringement. Eventually DC won, but that is another story completely. This 1941 premiere of Captain Marvel Adventures contains art by none other than Jack Kirby.
