Raboy was already an accomplished artist, and he immediately landed a job with the Works Progress Administration, a government-sponsored employment program which hired artists to decorate public places.
Raboy is best known for his work on "Captain Marvel, Jr" which debuted in September of 1941, written by Otto Binder.
Raboy was a much-admired artist, but not a fast worker and he required a number of assistants to complete his assignments on time.

Excellent for readers who were fans of the Mac Raboy era of the comic strip.

 Press Releases
First drawn to the character as a teen, because of the flawless Mac Raboy artwork, Ritchey has had a daunting task ahead of him--to match the skill and finesse displayed by writer/creator Kendall Foster Crossen in both the pulps and the comics and Raboy's defining, almost archetypal imagery.
Raboy was fifty years ahead of his time, and at the same time owed more to J.C. Coll, Leyendecher and Loomis--serious illustrators--than to just about any of the other comic book/strip artists of the time, altho' the Hal Foster influence shows through now and again.
In prize comics he wore a traditional monks' robe that was green but when he got his own book Mac Raboy drew him in a hooded super hero costume, not unlike the futuristic suits he would design for the Flash Gordon newspaper strip a few years hence.

 Captain Marvel, Jr. - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A member of the Marvel Family team of superheroes, he was created by Ed Herron and Mac Raboy, and first appeared in Whiz Comics #25 in December 1941.
The character's solo adventures feature an art style, devised by co-creator Mac Raboy, that was more realistic and dramatic style than the style used by C.C. Beck and the other Fawcett artists for Captain Marvel.
In most of his adventures, Freddy Freeman is depicted as a character to be pitied for his injury, reminiscent of Tiny Tim from Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol, until he transforms into his super-powered state.
