only appearing in "marvel family" #46. freddy freeman reads that all whales have vanished and are thought to be extinct, as in the past week not one whale has been sighted. freddy meets cap'n gregg, the whaler and friend of his, whose whaling ship just came in. he claims he has been at sea for months, and no whales have been sighted. all whalers are going bankrupt. gregg says the vanishing started a year ago, with catches getting smaller month by month. freddy thinks the whales were not all caught and killed as there are not that many whaleboats operating. he transforms into captain marvel jr. and searches the seas for whales, even searching underwater, but no whales are found. however, in the pacific he finds a whale and thinks it is the last one on earth. a whaling ship and its crew (what?) also spot the whale, and jr. says they are happy even if they only sack one whale. he seems more concerned about the threat to the whaling business then about the whales themselves. however another whaler then appears from a submarine and says the whale is his. jr. says the other ship sighted it first so they get him. but the man calls himself the whale master and says all whales are his. jr. asks why he claims so, since when, and why does he call himself the whale master? the whale master tries to push him off, but jr. socks him and asks for an explanation for his talk. however he recovers quickly and decides to harpoon the other ship before they can harpoon the whale. it has a bomb attached to it but jr. stops it. however the whale master then rams the ship, the harpoon being a diversion, and while jr. repairs the ship he escapes. gregg appears to be on the ship, but how did he get to the pacific so fast? jr. cannot see the whale and wonders if it was harpooned and dragged away, but sees a big wake left by the whale, so he decides to follow. he sees the whale master luring the whale away with a school of artificial fish, as schools of small fish are a whale's best food. jr. wonders if the whales have vanished in the past year due to the whale master luring them away alive. hours later they reach a pacific atoll, which the 'last whale on earth' is led into, revealing all the whales on earth are in there, lured by the whale master. how was he able to lure every single whale on earth there? why did jr. not spot this before? jr. wants to know his plan, but does not see his sub, so thinks the whale master has submerged due to seeing him. he decides to lure him up by transforming, then while on a whale he attracts his attention. the whale master wants nobody to stay alive and know his secret, so moves his sub towards freddy. technically what he is doing is not illegal, the only illegal thing he has done so far was against the whaling ship. freddy slides down the wrong way, hits his head on the deck, and knocks himself out. the whale master decides to tie him up and gag him, even though there is nobody else around. the whale master decides to brag to him about his achievement, by capturing all whales on earth he's cornered the market on whales. already the price of whale oil has become high, and the whale master thinks ambergris, used in the perfume industry, will be worth its weight on gold. he will be the only one on earth selling these. he throws freddy into a hungry whale's mouth, hoping it will grind him up into mincemeat. freddy thinks though the whale cannot swallow him whole he will be torn to shreds on its gigantic teeth. but he hooks his gag on a tooth, transforms, and knocks out the whale master from behind while he is looking for jr. he knocks him onto a whale spout, and while the whale master is on there he opens the gates. the whales start swimming out, and jr. tells the whale master the whaling industry will go on as before, and the only monopoly the whale master will get is a jail cell, all his very own.
