SHAZAM! Since 1940, that magic word has been an inspiration to all. For twelve-year-old newsboy Billy Batson, it meant becoming the World's Mightiest Mortal! Blessed with the powers of the gods by the wizard Shazam, the beloved super hero has been defending the helpless, righting wrongs and crushing evil for seventy-five years, without ever losing his Golden Age charm. And he's never had to do it alone - over the years, our hero's family has grown to include some of the most iconic deputies in comics including Mary Marvel, Captain Marvel Jr., Uncle Marvel, Hoppy the Marvel Bunny and the sometimes ally Black Adam. SHAZAM!: A CELEBRATION OF 75 YEARS includes all of the Big Red Cheese's shining moments, from his first appearance in WHIZ COMICS to his modern incarnation in DC's New 52, featuring the talents of Bill Parker, C.C. Beck, Curt Swan, Elliot S. Maggin, Jerry Ordway, Geoff Johns and many, many more.

Originally introduced in 1949, Superboy has grown to stand for so much more than just "tales of Superman when he was a boy." Today he is Jonathan Kent, teenage son of Clark Kent and Lois Lane, best friend of Robin, and a young man on the verge of becoming a true hero. Originally introduced as "Superman when he was a boy," the heroic mantle of Superboy has been worn by several super-powered beings over the decades. This new hardcover celebrates them all, from young Clark Kent in tales from his schoolboy days in Smallville, to Superboy's 1970s adventures in the 30th century with the Legion of Super-Heroes, to today's young Jonathan Kent, son of Clark and Lois Lane. This title includes Superboy's most memorable adventures, as written and illustrated by some of comics' top talents, including Geoff Johns, Dave Cockrum (co-creator of the New X-Men) and many others. Collects original SUPERBOY (More Fun Comics #101, Superboy #10 & #89, Adventure Comics #210, #247, #271), SUPERBOY & THE LEGION OF SUPERHEROS (Adventure Comics #369 & #370, Superboy and the Legion of Super-Heroes #233 & #259), SUPERBOY - Prime (DC Comics Presents #87 and Infinite Crisis #6), SUPERBOY (Conner Kent) (Adventures of Superman #501, Superboy #59, Teen Titans #24, Adventure Comics #2, Young Justice #3), SUPERBOY (Jon Kent) (Superman issues #6, #10, #11).

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.

These collectibles now sell for outrageous prices on eBay and in comic book stores and conventions. Seventy years later, an unprecedented assortment of these artifacts are gathered together by award-winning writer/designer Chip Kidd and photographer Geo Spear.

When Superman debuted seventy-five years ago, it was not merely the beginning for one character, but for an entire genre. The phrase "super hero" had yet to be coined when ACTION COMICS #1 hit newsstands in 1938, but once Superman entered the scene, effortlessly lifting a car above his head on that first iconic cover, the character paved the way for each of the hundreds (if not thousands) of super-powered heroes written since. SUPERMAN: A CELEBRATION OF 75 YEARS gathers a range of stories featuring the first and greatest super hero, highlighting the many roles the Man of Steel has played over the decades. In these celebrated stories, Superman is in turns the Herculean champion, the lonely alien survivor, the super-powered Boy Scout and the soul-searching leader. Over the course of seventy-five years, watch as the character grows from a simple strongman to the beloved international symbol he is today!
