Owner's Description

Synopsis for "Capt. Marvel Introduces Mary Marvel:"

Billy is hosting a quiz bowl at WHIZ Radio with three young contestants. During a commercial break, Billy receives an urgent letter from Sarah Primm requesting his presence. He immediately goes to see the dying woman, who tells Billy about his twin sister. When the Batson twins were orphaned after their parents died in a car accident, Primm had substituted Mary for the baby girl of a wealthy family she nursed for, who had suddenly died, and sent Billy to an orphanage. Primm gives a locket broken in half to Billy. Mary, Primm tells Billy before dying, wore the other half of the locket.

After the quiz is over, Billy recalls that one of the contestants, Mary Bromfield, wore a broken locket. Billy and Freddy Freeman trail Mary's limousine in their super-powered forms of Captain Marvel and Captain Marvel, Jr. Mary is kidnapped for ransom by thugs, prompting the two Marvels to intervene, save her, and knock out the kidnappers.

I have always dreamed of owning this comic, I don’t know why, but I have. I never believed I could ever afford it—until now. Sometimes childhood dreams can come true. It’s not the best or the prettiest, but it’s not the ugliest either. I like it. It’s mine, and I’m happy with it until another copy comes along that I can afford that’s in better shape.
A great buy to start my collection with, I think.
