Cover by Marc Swayze. Stories and art by Dave Berg, Otto Binder, and Marc Swayze. A Fawcett anthology with an emphasis on superhero adventure. In only her second appearance (after her debut in Captain Marvel Adventures (1941-1953 Fawcett) #18), Mary Marvel tracks sinister Santas stealing orphans' toys, and gets help from Mr. Scarlet, Pinky and the original Captain Marvel.
