Indexer Notes

1) The villain Prof. Doom is incorrectly called Dr. Doom on the cover. 2) Captain Marvel has blonde hair on the cover but red hair inside.

Lambiek Comiclopedia (https://www.lambiek.net/artists/f/francho_leon.htm) suggests that Francho was probably the Argentine artist Arnoldo Franchioni, who often used the penname "Francho."
