About this item
SHAZAM! #1 - DC Comics' 1st brand-new issue from February 1973, featuring the original Captain Marvel with the iconic "With One Magic Word" tagline. This historic debut issue introduces Billy Batson's transformation into the world's mightiest mortal through the magic word "Shazam!" The cover prominently displays Superman meeting the newly reimagined Captain Marvel character, marking a significant moment in DC Comics history as the publisher rebranded the Fawcett Comics character under the Shazam name. The issue includes an Aurora AFX toy advertisement on the back cover, showcasing the popular slot-car racing models from 1973, which is a notable period detail for collectors of vintage DC comics and memorabilia.
