Owner's Description

The Marvel Family #82 is referenced in Geoffrey Wagner’s “Parade of Pleasure” (POP) in the text on pages 92-93.

Wagner is critical of the inaccurate portrayal of the Korean conflict in comic books and uses a story contained in Marvel Family #82 to illustrate his point. He describes the comics as follows “In the Marvel Family no 81, where the Marvels go after the ‘mightiest mongol’, young Marvel shows that he is not behind the rest of his family in brutality; he mops the floor, literally, at the end of a stick, with a coloured, Mongolian enemy.

The Marvel Junior mopping scene is contained in the story “The Marvel Family Battles the Plundering Pasha, Chapter Two: The Perils of the Pasha”.
