Synopsis for Capt. Marvel, Jr.: "The Devil's Doom"

Freddy Freeman is reading The Tragicall History of the Life and Death of Doctor Faustus by Christopher “Kit” Marlowe and commends the idea of how the devil Mephistopheles return Dr. Faustus' youth in exchange for his soul and puts the book back on his shelf. Elsewhere, geriatric criminal “Duke” Malloy is dying and has only an hour left to live. Malloy is upset that he's dying, but also that he's too old to commit big crimes and wishes he could be young again for just twelve hours. Suddenly, a plume of smoke appears by his bed and out of it walks Mephistopheles, an agent of the Devil, who is willing to accept his wish for the price of his human soul. Malloy accepts and Mephistopheles calls DIABLO! LUCIFER! BEELZEBUB! to make him young again. Thus, Malloy decides to use his day of youth to rob the Diamond Cutting Factory itself to be an amazing crime no one will forget to be recorded in the annals of crime and goes off to do so.

Hours later, he arrives at the high-voltage fence and does a big Tarzan Swing over it from a tree with a rope and lands softly. He soon finds an unlocked window, but heading into it sets off an alarm, but decides to blow the safe anyways. Meanwhile, Freddy gets news of it from the cops and calls CAPTAIN MARVEL to become Captain Marvel, Jr. and flies off to find Malloy running through the electric fence facefirst! The cops soon arrive and Junior goes back to work as Malloy, unharmed, has escaped to a nearby railroad. Junior spots him while flying back to work and instead runs in front of a train to make Junior think he's dead again… but Junior realizes now that he's powerful enough to survive running through an electric fence and drags him off to jail. Junior goes to find a doctor to explain how he survived that and returns to being Freddy outside to do so. A furious Duke angrily shouts for Mephistopheles and says that he's been cheated, since Junior stopped him anyways. Mephistopheles laughs that the Devil can't control good people and he becomes old again and dies. Freddy and the cops are just as confused and Freddy thinks that him selling his soul like Dr. Faustus would be too silly to think of.
