Cover by Kurt Schaffenberger. Stories and art by Bill Woolfolk, Clem Weisbecker, Dick Dillin, Howard Boughner, Carl Pfeufer and John Jordan. Master Comics was one of the cornerstones of the Fawcett lineup during the 1940s. A discredited Civil War soldier returns from the grave, or so it seems, and Captain Marvel, Jr. is determined to get to the bottom of it. Tough soldier Bill Battle and his company are ordered to the front lines in Korea by General "Iron Pants" Rowley, and that's just fine for Bill Battle. Western hero Tom Mix investigates after a white man kills a Native so he can provide gold nuggets to the sinister Evil Eye Doggin.

Marvel Jr.: The Living Dead; Dizzy Daisy; Muscle Hedd; Vacuum Bloobstutter: Mystery in the Sky; Ozzie and Babs: Easy Money; Tom Mix: Evil Eye Doggin's Revenge! Bill Battle: The Biggest Brass There Is! Final issue of the series. 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
