I was amazed to see Captain Marvel rescue Superman.
DC is trying it’s best to resurrect the story of Shazaam! Unfortunately, when I hear of Shazaam!, I think of Gomer Pile. Is that bad of me? In this three part series. spanning from; Action Comics 826, to Adventures of Superman 639, to Superman 216, Captain Marvel rescues Superman from being inhabited by “Eclipso: The God of Revengeâ€. I enjoyed seeing Captain Marvel in this role. Although I think that his story needs some major thinning, I liked him in this very powerful role. My biggest problem with Captain Marvel is that the Wizard thing seems a little far-fetched.
This three part story was a wonderful way to place Captain Marvel back in the limelight.

It’s not bad to equate Shazam! with Gomer Pyle.
The character should be billed by his true name, Captain Marvel, but isn’t because DC was slipshod about holding onto the rights.
It’s one of the great injustices in the comic book world.
