Whiz Comics was published by Fawcett Publications between 1940 and 1953. It is best known for the first appearance of Captain Marvel, aka, Shazam.

As was common practice during the period, Whiz Comics did not have an issue #1. In fact, the series began with issue #2, and there were two different issue #3s. There were two black and white ashcan issues released in advance of the series titled Flash Comics and Thrill Comics (with Captain Marvel called "Captain Thunder") which are considered by many as alternate variants of the first issue of the series.

This issue includes the exploits of Captain Marvel, Golden Arrow, Jack the Second, Spy Smasher, Hedda and Tails, Lance O'Casey, and Ibis the Invincible.

By using modern Kindle conversion technology, the editor seeks to make these original masterpieces available to a much broader audience. Publication is from collected scans of public domain material. The editor has not scanned any of these books - he simply collected scans made by others and converted them to Kindle format. In each instance, he has used the best scan he can find, but occasionally the scans are less than perfect. The price of each comic is set as the minimum per sale value allowable by Amazon for these publications.
