Captain Midnight enjoys celebrating the holidays, whether it's Thanksgiving or Christmas...
...in one of the last comic book stories based on the radio show's format.
The comic book began to diverge from the radio show about the time this never-reprinted story, illustrated by Jack Binder, appeared in Fawcett's Captain Midnight #4 (1943).
Ichabod Mudd, who was Midnight's primary aide in all his media incarnations was already being altered with the addition of the comic-relief "Sgt Twilight" identity.Cap himself would soon abandon the modified military flight suit seen in this story and adopt a skintight ensemble with built-in glider wings.
(It had the same color scheme, so many thought the new ensemble was just the old outfit with wings attached.)
Merry Christmas
and
Happy New Year!
