#5 : Fun facts you may not have known about the King : " Elvis Presley "



#5. In his younger years, Elvis was a huge fan of Captain Marvel Jr. It's widely believed that Presley modeled his signature look after the superhero, including his hair, his sideburns, and his late-era caped jumpsuits. Elvis even adopted Captain Marvel Jr.'s lightning bolt symbol as his unofficial logo, plastering it on his private plane, the wall of his TV room, and his TCB-encrusted jewelry. The writers of more recent Captain Marvel Jr. comics have returned the favor by modeling a character called King Marvel after Presley, and also by having Captain Marvel Jr. refer to Elvis as "the greatest modern-day philosopher."
