In "Mieux vaut tard que jamais," a simple act of dusting Dexter's latest invention accidentally super-charges Grandmother Knox with electricity—setting off a chain of events that unexpectedly powers the lights of Miami during a citywide blackout. Written by Elliot Maggin and brought to life with dynamic art by C. C. Beck, this 1975 issue captures a quirky, heartfelt moment in the Shazam! mythos, with cover art by Beck and Jack Adler blending bold lines and whimsical energy.
