  3. This is beautiful. I want this to happen so so so bad. No SHAZAM in the new 52 hurt more than anything else, and you are on the top of my wish list artists for it.

  5. There is no one's Captain Marvel book I'd want to read more than Evan's. Amazing work, Evan, just amazing.

  6. I have no love for these characters and no interest in their stories, but I would seriously collect this comic book for the art.

  7. Great stuff. Evan draws him with a modern style reminiscent of Paul Pope, but still manages a tribute to C.C. Beck in his features. Best of all, the Big Red Cheese's world looks like it's FUN (Mr. Atom is a great villain). It was my hope that DC would reboot the Marvels and do away with the mismanagement of the last decade, but alas... We'll always have the Magic of Shazam.

    Would read? Big fan. Definitely.

  8. Amazing cover!

    DC should really have made another Shazam! book instead of the dozen of Batman, Superman and GL books...
