Marilyn Batson

Stepping out of the pages of Jerry Ordway and Pete Krause's beloved The Power of SHAZAM! in 1996, Marilyn Batson is a Modern Age DC character woven into the fabric of one of that era's most warmly regarded superhero revivals. With only a handful of catalog appearances, she's a rare and intriguing figure — the kind of supporting player whose presence in the same stories as Captain Marvel, Mary Marvel, and Mary Batson hints at a meaningful place in that extended family's mythology. For collectors who love the deeper corners of the SHAZAM! corner of the DC universe, Marilyn Batson is exactly the sort of discovery that makes digging through back issues so rewarding.
