"All it took was one magic word ... SHAZAM! By the end of 1940, the success of Fawcett Publishing's Captain Marvel began to rival that of Superman, the Man of Steel. The World's Mightiest Mortal had become a super-hero to reckon with. As Captain Marvel's popularity grew, so did the number of titles and features where he could be found. And with that expansion came the development of the mythology that remains part of the character even today. Shazam! Archives volume two follows this development of the legend of Captain Marvel and the extremely rare Special Edition Comics #1 and Captain Marvel Adventures #1--two of the first comics to feature Captain Marvel from cover to cover."--Jacket
