DC Comics’ Billy Batson gets a welcome shine in a new solo series, and we’ve got your first look at a new preview of the issue and some of the book’s stunning covers right here! Shazam #1 will feature the amazing team of Mark Waid and Dan Mora, and as you can see from the amazing cover below, the book is simply beautiful. The first issue also sets the bar high, as it’s not every day you get the power of Shazam and a huge T-Rex in the same book. Fans can check out slick covers from Mora, Chris Samnee, Evan Doc Shaner and more from the next slide, and you can find the full preview there too. You can also find the full description of the problem below.
