Overview

Chosen to receive the power of six mighty elders, young newscaster Billy Batson has only to speak the name of the ancient wizard...SHAZAM!


In 1973, DC brought back one of the most beloved superheroes of all time: Shazam! Fans rejoiced at the return of Billy Batson; his sister, Mary; and their friend Freddy Freeman as they embarked on new adventures that evoked their original fun-filled comic book escapades. Together, the Shazam family took on a variety of vexing villains such as the contemptible Captain Nazi, the dastardly Dr. Sivana, and the maniacal Mr. Mind—and often learned a lesson or two in the process! Join the Big Red Cheese and company for more nonstop family fun in this continuation of tales spanning the late ’70s to the early ’80s from legendary comics writer E. NELSON BRIDWELL, featuring art by DON NEWTON, KURT SCHAFFENBERGER, and more! This third volume collects stories from World’s Finest Comics #253-270 and 272-282, and Adventure Comics #491-492.

About the Author

E. Nelson Bridwell went from being one of comics' earliest fans in the 1950s to a position as assistant to editor Mort Weisinger in 1965. Renowned for his encyclopedic knowledge of comics history, Bridwell was soon serving as DC's unofficial "continuity cop" during an era when editors and writers were only just beginning to tie together DC's more than quarter-century of history. In addition to his editorial duties, Bridwell was also a prolific writer, whose credits include a run on the Batman syndicated newspaper strip, SHAZAM!, The Inferior Five, The Secret Six, Super Friends, and many stories for the Superman and Batman families of titles. Nelson continued writing and editing for DC until his death in 1987.
