"Introducing Captain Marvel" gathers legendary voices in a pivotal tale where Sivana hijacks Shazam’s magic lightning to challenge the might of Captain Marvel.

Written by Roy Thomas, Julius Schwartz, Gil Kane, and Joey Cavalieri, with art by Gil Kane and colors by Carl Gafford, this 2008 DC story features a cover by Alex Ross that captures the epic clash in bold, timeless style.

Sivana steals Shazam's magic lightning to power himself up and weaken Captain Marvel. After he imprisons Captain Marvel at the Rock of Eternity, Sivana decides to eliminate the only threat left to him: Superman. Accidentally arriving on Earth-2, he leaves the original Superman on a Kryptonite meteor before heading to Earth-1 to lure Superman there into another Kryptonite trap. But with the encouragement of his Elders, Captain Marvel escapes his imprisonment and saves Superman, who frees his doppelganger, and wakes Shazam, who removes Sivana's powers.
