I'm curious as to whether there's a list of key issues relating to Shazam?

Many thanks! ^_^

Captain Marvel Adventures #18 (First appearance and origin of Mary Marvel). Also I mean #17 isn't really a key per say, but it's a really cool painted cover so maybe a tad more sought after than some of the others. Other than those not much comes to mind other than #1 as Gator pointed out lol.

There are quite a few. Mostly because of classic covers. A few have origins and a couple of my favorites are #79 (origin Mr. Tawny) and #80 (origin Capt. Marvel retold). The Overstreet guide may be useless for prices, but it is the best reference guide for information out there. By the way, the original Capt. Marvel from the '40's and '50's wasn't called "Shazam"...

It was silly on my part as I meant Shazam key issues in general, as I forgot about Whiz Comics etc

Issue 52, as seen in my avatar, has 1st appearance of Sivana Jr. The best part is it currently holds no premium over its neighboring issues.
