Book Reviews
Two of comicdom’s most legendary characters are none other than Superman and Captain Marvel, more popularly known as Shazam.
To the unfamiliar, at first glance the two heroes seem almost indistinguishable from one another with Captain Marvel wearing the spiffier costume while Superman possesses the more iconic insignia.
Superman/Shazam: First Thunder chronicles a contemporary interpretation of the first meeting between the World’s Mightiest Mortal and the Man of Steel.
chronicles a contemporary interpretation of the first meeting between the World’s Mightiest Mortal and the Man of Steel.
And though not the best-drawn story featuring these characters that have both been around since the early days of comic books, this graphic novel provides a bit of insight into the differences between the two.
For example, from a dialogue between these foremost costumed adventurers, the reader learns that while Superman might have superior senses, Captain Marvel is more immune to the effects of magic.
It is doubtful Superman/Shazam will be remembered as a graphic novel classic. However, fans will nevertheless get a kick out of seeing these legends team up.
