"I generally like Jurgens' work, but that story was indeed a downer, as well as a difficult nut to swallow.  I think that it was a poor creative choice to have Linear Man's speech bubble appear on panel before the Legionnaries have even moved on.  It…"

"It should be easy enough to avoid using "Captain Marvel" in the cover, though.  Just call it "Fawcett Golden Age Classics" or something.However, reprints of part of that material in the 1970s apparently did not sell great, at a time when it was much…"
