Summary

Description
English: One of the few remaining ashcan copies of Fawcett's proposed Flash Comics, featuring Captain Thunder (later published as Captain Marvel in Whiz Comics number 2). An ashcan copy is a publication produced solely for legal purposes (such as copyright), and not normally intended for distribution. In this case, Fawcett failed to secure the copyright, as All-American had already published a book under the same title. Some of the artwork was later used in Whiz Comics number 3 (March 1940, page 14). This image is assumed to be in the public domain due to lapsed copyright.
