    Cover by Mac Raboy. Stories and art by Mac Raboy, C. C. Beck, Otto Binder, George Tuska, Carl Formes, Charles Sultan, Tom McNamara, Jim Wilcox, Ken Battefield, Rafael Astarita, Kin Platt, and Ralph Carlson. Fawcett's annual comics omnibus, published to coincide with the Christmas holidays, includes over 300 pages of comics. Although often described as a collection of unsold, returned comics, the original issues were actually overprinted deliberately for inclusion in Xmas Comics. This issue includes Whiz Comics #21, Captain Marvel Adventures #3, Bulletman #2, Wow Comics #3, and Master Comics #18. Does not have a felt cover enhancement. Mr. Scarlet, nicknamed "the Crimson Knight," meets three more of his greatest foes, including: The Black Thorn, whose "mummy ray" turns people into mummified corpses; The Black Clown and his army of circus performers gone wrong; and jewel thief the Laughing Skull, who forces his victims to read their own gravestones. All three were future members of the "Death Battalion" (as well as Jon Morris's 2013 book The Legion of Regrettable Supervillains). Includes stories by Fawcett legends Mac Raboy, C. C. Beck, Otto Binder, and future Marvel legend George Tuska.
