Axe

Bursting onto the scene in 2010 within DC's charming all-ages series Billy Batson & the Magic of Shazam!, Axe is a Modern Age creation from the inventive team of Art Baltazar, Franco, and Byron Vaughns. With only a handful of appearances to their name, this is a rare and curious corner of the Shazam universe — sharing pages with Billy Batson, Mary Marvel, and the beloved Tawky Tawny in a series that brought warmth and whimsy to the World's Mightiest Mortal's mythology. For collectors who love digging into the overlooked nooks of DC's all-ages output, Axe is exactly the kind of obscure gem that makes the hunt worthwhile.
