Adventures of Captain Marvel

While journeying with a scientific expedition to Siam, clumsy young Billy Batson (Frank Coghlan Jr.) encounters the mysterious wizard Shazam (Nigel De Brulier), who bestows upon Billy the ability to transform himself into the spectacularly strong Captain Marvel (Tom Tyler). Billy then returns to the United States, where — as his superhero alter ego — he fights for justice against his nemesis, the Scorpion, in this beloved 12-episode serial.
