Billy Batson, member of a scientific expedition, is awarded the power to transform himself into a Superman - Captain Marvel - upon uttering the word "Shazam".
The Scientists discover a powerful gold weapon, "The Scorpion", the potency of which is brought about by focusing five peculiar lenses.
The lenses are split amongst the scientists, but an individual who calls himself "The Scorpion" seeks these to conquer the universe.
Captain Marvel battles against the Scorpion and his men and is threatened by a fiendish guillotine and a time bomb each time being saved by his super strength. But the Scorpion tricks him so that he cannot utter the word "Shazam".
