Here’s some of artist Mac Raboy’s wonderful Alex Raymond-inspired art on a 1940′s Doctor Voodoo tale tale from Fawcett’s Whiz Comics.

Speaking of Raboy, it was a Fawcett standard to draw Captain Marvel Jr like Raboy whenever possible. Here, we see him in the one and only appearance of the Crime Crusaders Club from a 1943 Minute Man story.

Finally today, here we have a nice selection of the later-post Beck-Captain Tootsie strip ads for Tootsie Rolls, these by Bill Schreiber.
