For this episode, Comic Talkers Mari and Brandon continues on with Shazam! month by tackling the story "Shazam! Power of Hope." This story, written by Paul Dini with the amazing artwork from the G.O.A.T., Alex Ross, tells the story of Billy Batson a.k.a Captain Marvel as he comes to learn that a hero's job is to not only to save the day, but to also use his powers to instill hope into others around him. He learns this by visiting a local children's hospital and seeing how children, like Billy Batson, look up to someone like Captain Marvel and how much happiness it brings to them.
