The Shazam! Archives, Vol. 2 (DC
Archive Editions) by DC Comics
Beck At His Best
Given powers by an ancient and mysterious wizard, boy reporter Billy
Batson need only say the word Shazam and he is transformed into the
powerful adult hero Captain Marvel. Reprinting the early 1940s tales of the
Worlds Mightiest Mortal, this beautiful book includes classic stories in
which Captain Marvel battles the heavyweight boxing champion and his
super-intelligent gorilla companion, breaks up a murderous gambling ring,
investigates curious occurrences at a haunted house, fights a deadly
ancient vampire, breaks up a cattle rustling ring, meets his match in a
robotic adversary and fights his hypnotized ally Spy Smasher.
Personal Review: The Shazam! Archives, Vol. 2 (DC Archive
Editions) by DC Comics
The Shazam Archives Vol.2 presents some historic Captain Marvel tales,
including Special Edition #1, Captain Marvel Adventures #1, and the Spy
Smasher crossover in Whiz. The whole archive has some very different
takes on Captain Marvel, with Jack Kirby artwork on Adventures #1 and a
more realistic approach in the Spy Smasher series. While not quite as
light-hearted as most Captain Marvel, the archives is very enjoyable and a
great addition to any collection.
