After astronauts are captured by cavemen on Jupiter, The Marvel Family decides to introduce the Jupiterians to a little thing called civilization. When Mary Marvel encounters a poor, mistreated girl named Ella, she gets to re-enact the Cinderella fairy tale for real, with a taxicab for a coach and herself as fairy godmother. Captain Marvel builds the Shazam Robot, which talks like C3PO, but when it goes on a rampage, The Marvel Family must reboot it with their fists. The Marvel Family Civilizes a Prehistoric Race; Captain Marvel and the Crime Masquerade; Mary Marvel Becomes a Fairy Godmother; Captain Marvel Jr. Goes Down Memory Lane; Underground Duel; The Marvel Family and the Shazam Robot. 48 pages, Full Color.
