Shazam! #23

The World's Mightiest Mortal and his junior partners are in serious peril on Kurt Schaffenberger's cover for this Winter 1976 issue — Captain Marvel charges forward in his red-and-gold suit while two young allies in blue and red tumble through the sky alongside a massive, crashing black object. The cover copy poses a genuinely urgent question: can Earth's mightiest hero save himself and his teammates from being blown to atoms? Inside, the legendary team of writer Otto Binder and artist C. C. Beck deliver "The World's Mightiest Project," a book-length blockbuster spotlighting the whole Marvel Family.
