Out of the three or four old Marvel Team-Up issues we recently sacrificed to gods of art, this was the most awesome panel. We gave it a little 4×4 canvas of its own to live out the rest of its unnatural life.
In the recessed area on the back, we added three things. Two of them are seeds, and one is a cicada we painted chrome. These symbols of rebirth and regeneration will help the good Captain with his liberation! The scraps behind the main panel come from a drawing of Phoenix — another symbol of rebirth.

Longbox Graveyard reviewed the 1970s Captain Marvel series and found it lacking. LBG wrote, “Rick Jones is even worse, popping off seventies slang and pursuing an irredeemably boring career as a folk singer.”
Rick Jones’ singing about “champagne people” is pretty horrendous. On the upside, we always like it when superheroes pick up a guitar and jam — from The Human Fly to Josie and the Pussycats! So, here’s a little excerpt from Rick’s irredeemable career.
And, no, Rick, you are certainly not Alice Cooper. Or even Led Zeppelin!
