Cover by Bud Thompson. Stories and art by Bud Thompson and Howard Boughner. Fawcett's showcase for comics covers the humor, Western, adventure and superhero genres, featuring Captain Marvel Jr., Bulletman and Bulletgirl. Capt. Marvel Jr. follows a backwards-walking giant to the Land of Backwards, where everything is reversed, and doesn't know whether he's coming or going. Kidnappers think they can hide their hostages in the jungle and no one will be able to find them, but they don't know Nyoka. When a former vaudeville performing dog is trained for robbery, Bulletman's flying dog Bulletdog pounces into action. Plus a plethora of vintage comics-format ads, including a hair-cream ad featuring detective Sam Spade, and a Tootsie Roll ad, Captain Tootsie's Counter-Spook, with art by Shazam co-creator CC Beck.
