Fan Page: The Kid Super-Power Hour With SHAZAM!



The Kid Super-Power Hour With SHAZAM! melted my little 8-year-old mind and further blurred that razor-thin line between Fantasy and Reality. Teenagers dressed up as Super Heroes! And then they turned in to cartoon character for the cartoon parts! And the very first ever CAPTAIN MARVEL CARTOONS! This was a bonding point between my Dad and I... he was decidedly non-nerdy, but had been a Captain Marvel fan when he was a kid (he was an older dude).

If you have anything nice to say, or anything to say at all about this show please feel free to share it in the comments below. And hey, if this is one of your favorites? Be sure to go and vote for it in our Best Cartoon of 1981 Poll!

The world needs more Captain Marvel love, anyway. Can anyone imagine this in this day and age with a majo copyrighted character, let alone all the thorny legal issues DC had with Captain Marvel. Good times.

I actually remember this! Holy cow, I was thinking of this show the other day for some odd reason, and I wasn't sure if it actually existed or not. Apparently it really did.

I've recently watched full, uncut episodes of this show and even *I* still have problems accepting that it actually existed!
