You could try, but you'd be blasphemous.

Ok, I know you're trying to piss a particular person off, but that just isn't true....

Marvel Jr, mary marvel and the whole family were introduced before superman's were..so in effect superman in the silver age was ripping off captain marvel.

The fact that he had a cape and was super strong is the only similarity...

So in effect, captain marvel was the character that initiated the silver age of DC, because Capt Marvel was selling more books than any other character for nearly a decade...



The topic is Capt Marvel is a rip off of Superman,not the Marvel Family is a rip off of the Superman family!

Even the cover of his first appearance was a Superman rip off!





Plus,even The Hurricane is better than Captain Marvel

See those two guys falling out of the car Cap is holding? Those are the same two guys from the background of the Action Comics cover.

Stand back... there's a hurricane comin' through!

Those are the two stunt guys who were used with all the car-crunching effects back in the Golden Age of Comics

you know, Captain Marvel killed those guys. Since they had no seat belts to protect them, they were thrown from the vehicle into a wall with enough momentum to crunch steel (as evident by the hood of the car). With that in mind, how can Captain Marvel ever be considered a good role model?

That settles it; Captain Marvel is a villain.

Supporting the theory that books about villains can never sell well enough to be sustained.

I wasn't alive in the forties, therefore I have no way of knowing whether or not what you claim is correct.

Your argument is irrelevant, King Snarf.

There was nobody in the car. Superman let the bad guys get out first and then destroyed their mode of transportation. Superman is a good guy.

You're right. Those people are probably thanking him.

I mean, look at that guy in the foreground. He's probably worrying that he'll never be able to do anything to show Superman true appreciation for destroying his ve-hi-cle. And that guy in the background...playing football, obviously.

I've got nothing for that guy kneeling on all fours beneath the car with the look of absolute terror in his eyes, though.

those dudes probably killed a baby. That's why they were hiding in the desert. But even though they killed a baby Superman still let them live. That takes a moral strength none of us could match.

He was doing the state a favor. They needed those rocks removed for a new highway but they were short on funds to blow them up. And Superman used his heat vision to melt the glass into superheated liquid that became solid when it coagulated with the rock.

I imagine Perry White is more or less an old-fashioned "Roosevelt liberal" moderate mostly concerned with getting good stories to sell his papers, but no, that doesn't make him a communist or even a communist sympathizer by any means.

It was a story in the 60's (don't know the original issue but it was reprinted in The Best of DC Digest Book #8, Dec. 1980). Clark Kent was 'blinded' and forced to give up his identity and start another one. He ended up being a butler named "William Digby" and was hired by a master jewel thief. During a party, Superman was being summoned and in order to escape, he was shown pouring two large bottles into a punch bowl and called it 'The Prince's Punch'. Being suspicious, Clark was ordered to drink it by his boss (thought he was slipping him a mickey). Of course, Supes isn't affected by it so everyone drinks up. Next panel, everyone's woozy and falling down from the drink while Clark changes to Superman.

Now that's MY kind of hero
