Episode 56: Shazam! - "Out of Focus"

Shazam! "Out of Focus" October 16, 1976

​An aspiring filmmaker captures a robbery on film. Now, the
thieves are out to get the film, but he sees it as his ticket to
success in a local film festival.  Can Captain Marvel and
Isis ensure this film makes it to the screen while keeping the
young Spielberg safe?








It's the final episode of the Shazam! series as John
and Richard discuss the location of this particular
episode, the professionalism of Michael Gray, the
clunky resolution to a story that Isis could have
solved with a simple incantation, and Shazam/Isis
fandom.  Plus: We have two flashbacks of our own
in this episode!


​It's all here and we want to hear from you on what
you think of the episode.  Write us as

​Moral: “We've all been faced by temptation - a
chance to win a contest, maybe cheat on an exam or
make some easy money in a dishonest way, but most
of  us know better than to fall for things like
that.  In today's story, Jim learned what Zeus
meant when he said, 'Those who act dishonestly to
win, walk in disgrace, perhaps even in danger.' 
So play it safe and play it smart.  Don't be
fooled by temptation.  The honest way is the
best way."
