In "Captain Marvel Meets... Lex Luthor!?!", the cunning Lex Luthor stumbles into Captain Marvel’s world after a magical mishap with his own invention, setting off a bizarre clash of minds and might. With help from Mr. Mind, Luthor devises a dangerous plan to trap Billy Batson in a water tank with a hammerhead shark, testing the limits of the Shazam-powered hero’s courage. Written by Denny O'Neil and illustrated by Bob Oksner, with inks by Tex Blaisdell, this 1974 DC classic features a memorable crossover that brings two very different villains into the same fight. The cover, also by Bob Oksner, captures the moment of confrontation with bold, dynamic energy.
