Shazam! #17
In "The Pied Un-Piper," Shazam! faces a bizarre threat when the mysterious Allegro Scruff unleashes his music, drawing in alien invaders with increasingly strange appetites—first a race that feeds on pollution, then one that raids chocolate stores, and finally a group obsessed with stealing the color green. Written by Denny O'Neil and illustrated with vivid detail by Kurt Schaffenberger, this 1975 DC adventure blends whimsy and wonder in a story that’s as quirky as it is memorable. The cover, by Bob Oksner, captures the surreal tone perfectly.
