“ON THE JOB!”
SUMMARY: Pedro takes his new crossing guard responsibilities very seriously. But when disaster strikes, can he keep his Shazam Family identity a secret and keep his classmates safe?
“DESTROYING EUGENE CHOI”
SUMMARY: A mysterious glowing artifact proves to be the perfect power source for Eugene’s robotics project—until it grants his robot a life of its own! Now Eugene must dismantle the rogue battlebots before they destroy Fawcett High…and to do it, he’ll need the help of his greatest rival!
COMMENTS: This comics’ cover is actually a panel from the “On the Job!” story. Apparently, they didn’t want to pay for a new cover each week. The first story doesn’t have Billy Batson in it at all and shows how much fun the Shazam family is on their own. It’s a light and fun story. “Destroying Eugene Choi” is a whiz kids type story that only guest stars Billy Batson’s Shazam. It’s a cute story that brings more fun to this comic than most comics these days. It’s nice to see different takes on Shazam by different writers. This will be a lot of fun when it’s ultimately collected into a trade paperback.
