CAPTAIN MARVEL – THE ONLY SUPERHERO BROUGHT DOWN BY LAWYERS.


And let’s not for get that Captain Marvel Jr. was the boyhood role model for Elvis Presley

“Captain Marvel was the most popular superhero of the 1940s, as his Captain Marvel Adventures comic book series sold more copies than Superman and other competing superhero books during the mid-1940s. Captain Marvel was also the first comic book superhero to be adapted to film, in a 1941 Republic Pictures serial titled Adventures of Captain Marvel. Fawcett ceased publishing Captain Marvel-related comics in 1953, due in part to a copyright infringement suit from DC Comics alleging that Captain Marvel was an illegal infringement of Superman.”
