DC Comics' landmark series resurrects the Golden Age legend of Captain Marvel, the caped champion who first graced newsstands in 1939, bringing his thunderous power and wholesome heroism to a new generation of readers in this early-1974 issue priced at a nostalgic 20 cents.\n\nThis iconic comic series, revived by DC in 1973 after a decades-long hiatus, champions classic superhero storytelling with a bright, optimistic tone that stands in vivid contrast to the darker heroes of its era. Writer Denny O'Neil and artist C.C. Beck — the character's original co-creator — infuse the series with Silver Age charm and retro wit, presenting a hero whose power derives not from science or tragedy, but from the ancient magic of six legendary figures. This New Year-themed issue, with its jubilant cover saluting 1974, is a rare and collectible piece of comic book history that captures a singular moment of revival for one of DC's most beloved and enduring icons.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49203110936795,"sku":"2026100009721-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/442a855e-a94e-42d4-9f7d-1fdfce5b0689.png?v=1788144032","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100009721-secondhand-shazam-the-original-captain-marvel-vol-2-no-11","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
