DC Comics’ Billy Batson is getting some 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 stellar team of Mark Waid and Dan Mora, and as you can see from the amazing cover below, the book is simply gorgeous. The first issue is setting the bar high too, as it’s not every day you get the power of Shazam and a massive T-Rex in the same book. Fans can check out slick covers by Mora, Chris Samnee, Evan Doc Shaner, and more starting on the next slide, and you can find the full preview there as well. You can also find the full description of the issue below.
