In 1994 Billy Batson's origin story was revitalized for a new era in The Power of SHAZAM!, the acclaimed graphic novel written and illustrated by Jerry Ordway. The story reintroduced Shazam, the Wizard, Dr. Sivana, and Black Adam, and was followed by an ongoing series, set four years later.

This volume collects both the OGN and the first year of the series, bringing retro elements from Fawcett Comics history into modern-day continuity.
