    Cover by Pete Costanza. Stories and art by Basil Wolverton, Clem Weisbecker, Ruben Moreira, Frank Bolle and Kurt Schaffenberger. The Fawcett comic that introduced the original Captain Marvel (Shazam) to the world. Aliens challenge Captain Marvel to win the "Mobell Space Prize" for Earth - but he's just Earth's Mightiest Mortal, not the Universe's. Lance O'Casey goes undercover as a boxer to investigate rigged fights, and ends up on the wrong end of Bruiser and his brass knuckles. The Devil's servants try to ruin good men by preying on their weaknesses, but Ibis shows them their inner strength. Plus a "Culture Corner" strip by legendary cartoonist Basil Wolverton, featuring useless but hilarious advice on "How to Raise Your Eyebrows." And vintage ads for The Captain Marvel Club and Roy Rogers cowboy-style belts and suspenders. Captain Marvel: The Mobell Space Prizes!; Red and Fred; Freshman Freddy: The Long and Short of It!; The Culture Corner; Golden Arrow: Magic and Murder!; Wicky and O'Shawnessy; Lance O'Casey: Frame Up; Poor Paul; Pilot Pete; Ibis the Invincible: The Devil Imps. 48 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
