This landmark DC Comics anthology issue — a colossal 100-page giant priced at just 60 cents — chronicles the thrilling adventures of Billy Batson, the boy who transforms into the mighty Captain Marvel by uttering a single magic word, pitting him against a rogues' gallery of supernatural threats including the eerie Haunted Clubhouse and the cunning Sharpshooter. Packed with multiple action-packed stories and classic reprints, this oversized issue presents the golden age heroics that made Captain Marvel one of the most beloved figures in comic book history.\n\nOriginally published in the early-to-mid 1970s as part of DC's revival of the Fawcett Comics character, Shazam! restored a pop-culture icon to newsstands with vibrant, wholesome storytelling that balanced wide-eyed wonder with genuine comic-book thrills. The anthology format showcases the rich legacy of the character, drawing on decades of imaginative storytelling that argues for Captain Marvel's enduring place in the superhero pantheon. For collectors and fans of the golden and silver age of comics, this rare oversized issue is a time capsule of pure, unadulterated superhero magic — one that will leave you wondering just how much power a single word can hold.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49203110904027,"sku":"2026100009722-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/5cf0c397-fa99-4f4e-bc86-5cf78bb1d212.png?v=1788144030","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100009722-secondhand-shazam-the-original-captain-marvel-vol-2-no-13","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
