Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Wisdom of Soloman?
Within the first 10 pages of this very short story we see Captain Marvel telling a group of sick children how he took muzzled grizzly bears and threw them up in the air and juggled them as part of a circus act all to the kids great amusment. I guess the Captain's compassion only extends so far. The sick kids in the story are bringing tears to readers eyes at the same time they gloss over other forms of abuse. The god of empathy was obviously forgotten when these authors revisioned Shazam!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Alex Ross rules
Some of the finest artwork in comic books today. Alex Ross is unsurpassed in the quality of painted artwork being created for comic books today. "Power of Hope" is an encouraging, uplifting story with dynamic artwork to go with it. I've enjoyed virtually everything that Ross has worked on, and this book is no exception.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - "Power of Hope" is definitely an appropriate title

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Who's Captain Marvel?
Take it from someone who had barely heard of Captain Marvel before now, this book is GREAT! I would recommend it to anyone and everyone. It's a fitting homage to an amazing and all but forgotten character.I don't think I need to further praise either Paul Dini's storytelling(he did both the Batman and the Superman Animated Series, Justice League, Batman: War on Crime, Superman: Peace on Earth, etc.) or Alex Ross' artwork(Kingdom Come, Justice 1, 2, and 3, etc.); the other reviewers have already.This ...

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Graphic SF Reader
Here, Alex Ross and Paul Dini take a crack at the Big Red Cheese, and he is definitely in Big Red Cheese mode in this book. Ross has again done a fine job with his artwork, and so this is very nice to look at, as we see both Captain Marvel and Billy Batson enjoy their lives and take down the odd villain in the process.
