In "L'invasion des vers de terre," a mysterious jewel throws Captain Marvel’s lightning bolt off course, sending it to unexpected recipients—including Bonzo the Chimp—transforming them into unlikely heroes. Written by Elliot Maggin and brought to life with dynamic art by C. C. Beck, this 1976 issue from Arédit-Artima offers a delightfully bizarre twist on the classic Shazam! formula, with Beck’s distinctive pencils and inks defining every electrifying moment. The cover, also by Beck, captures the chaos in bold, expressive lines.
