In a personal story told from the hero's point of view, both young Billy Batson and his alter ego, Captain Marvel, devote themselves to keeping hope alive by granting the requests of a local hospital's children--in a sense, making their wishes come true.

From the fan-favorite team behind SUPERMAN- PEACE ON EARTH and BATMAN- WAR ON CRIME comes the third entry in the oversized tabloid format series that has revolutionized comics. SHAZAM!- POWER OF HOPE marks the latest collaboration between Emmy Award-winning writer/producer Paul Dini (BATMAN- HARLEY QUINN) and multiple award-winning Alex Ross (KINGDOM COME, UNCLE SAM).
Perhaps no classic comic-book character embodies the spirit of youth and optimism as thoroughly as Captain Marvel--the wish fulfillment of every child who ever dreamed of having super powers and taking flight. In a personal story told from the hero's point of view, both young Billy Batson and his alter ego, Captain Marvel, devote themselves to keeping hope alive by granting the requests of a local hospital's children--in a sense, making their wishes come true.
Powerfully written by Dini, with staggering painted art by Ross that combines traditional comic-book storytelling and the illustrated-text format of storybooks, SHAZAM!- POWER OF HOPE finds our hero taking a direct hand upon meeting a boy who has been injured by domestic violence. Deeply affected by the encounter, our story shows just how human the World's Mightiest Mortal truly is.
