I had heard of this show but I've actually never seen so much as a snippet of footage. I'm going to go ahead and assume it's dated quite a bit, but I am curious to see it for myself. Here's the official synopsis.
By uttering a single magic word young Billy Batson transforms himself into the world's mightiest mortal, Captain Marvel. The acronym of the first letters of the names of the six elders who train Billy with their respective special gifts: Solomon, wisdom; Hercules, strength; Atlas, stamina; Zeus, power; Achilles, courage; and Mercury, speed, in a word...SHAZAM! Now, the entire series is available in this 3-disc set featuring every exciting episode of this classic television show!
Shazam! comes to DVD October 23rd.
