The Lost Marvel: Episode VI: Play Money.




Freckles Marvel was a part of Captain Marvel history, and not a once off oddity either: During the height of Captain Marvel's fame, at which point, need  I remind you, he was easily more recognizable than Superman,  she graced several covers. She had a town for her to inhabit,  supporting characters to her, and even a nifty apellation. And seemingly overnight, she banished off the face of the earth, never to be tarted up, or gritted up, or killed off. Just oblivion.

It's time to again laught AT the FM and not with her. See, when this story starts Mary Marvel is just finding out Freckles Marvel has  a new gig: delivery girl. She's riding around Marveltown, delivering packages, back in the red costume. she invites Mary along, and she delivers a misterious package.


"Come on! Why won't she eat it!?"


But naturally, some people alert her to the fact she's gone done fucked this up. She gave the hair tonic to the rich lady,  and the gun to the bald guy! And the bald guy badly misplaced the gun!
Do you feel ducky, punk?

This might seem all too serious to you, but Mary Marvel finds it hilarious. 
Hee Hee! You can''t trancscend your phiical limitations!


So Mfrecks only gets payed by the one guy,and goes out to buy  a dress. Nothng like good, hard earned...
Doesn't everyone in Marveltown know that Freckles is...you know..."special?"

So Mary Marvel goes out and tries to clear Freckles Marvel's name by punching assholes.
And he never again walked the easy path. Or walked in a general way.

Eventually, she uses the wisdom of Athena to clear Freckles Marvel from all crimes. Will she leave the fast paced, dangerous life of a delivery girl behind?
I just want them off my court before they find about my corruption and punch me in the kidneys.

Haha! No.This one's unusual in that MFrecks did not only did not solve the problem, but that even Mary Marvel's view of her wasn't all that great. If we're being fair, Freckles Marvel could probably not solve all this types of crimes herself all the time. Still, a good story in my opinion.
