The epic Captain Marvel/Spy Smasher battles raises the stakes in this issue. In the Captain Marvel part, a brainwashed Spy Smasher targets Billy Batson's boss, Sterling Morris. In the Spy Smasher part, Spy Smasher creates a giant 40s style lawn mower to create powerful cyclones. Outlandishly ridiculous and exciting!

NotesPart 4 of the Captain Marvel vs. Spy Smasher storyline, which continues in the Spy Smasher story in this issue. The splash page figure of Captain Marvel is also found on the cover of Whiz Comics #16. Beck sometimes drew Pete Costanza into the Captain Marvel stories (which Costanza then inked), as in this one where he appears as an un-named salesman. Information verified by P. C. Hamerlinck in Alter Ego #126 (July 2014) and added by Craig Delich.
