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.
But she won't stay forgotten for long, because, I'm covering all her adventures in my series The Lost Marvel.
This latest issue begins when Mary Marvel hears a violent agression, and it turns out our own Freckles Marvel is our perpetrator. But why? I bet there was some ragequitting involved!
|
She also said polkadots are out! |
In order to apease her violent impulses, Mary taked FreckMar to the old toy shop so she can polish her basic Chess skills. But some thugs follow them home.
|
Yeah, let's not just take what we want. |
They bound and gag Mary Dudely, and Mary Batson is forced to use her powers. However, they know their tropes well.
|
Well, she can't do that with her mouth covered, can she? |
|
For the Evols! |
Upon hearing they are not the only people to have their chess sets stolen, they go on the factory to look for clues. Instead...they find the actual thieves working there. Naturally, it
's clobbering time.
|
Mary Marvel is a union breaker. |
Turns out it was all a complicated scheme to smuggle expensive jewels! Our heroines then coles out the whole "chess arc".
|
"The only way we could safely get away with theft was if we robed what we had stolen! Like gods, we were! |
So, as it turns out, Mary Marvel checking on her mate, Freckles allowed them to enroque in an great adventured. Despite her checkered past and nearly being pawned, FM herself succesfully somemore chesspuns!
Bonus Round

Uh.., you can't train for chess by yourself, dimwit. |
