    There is quite a bit of buzz about Superman versus Shazam. People are buzzing about who would win. Are you ready to see the fight in the theaters? Do you think you could withstand watching that fight? I don't know. Superman and Shazam are both mighty superhero gods.
    Superman was born on the planet Krypton. He was sent to earth and began developing various superhuman abilities and strength. He is Clark Kent.

    Captain Marvel also known as Shazam is Billy Batson, a boy who speaks the magic word “Shazam” is transformed into the costume adult with the powers of superhuman srength, speed, light, and other abilities.

    There was a fight between Shazam and Superman back in 1978 in volume seven number C 58 of the DC comics. That fight started because of an evil wizard. His name was Karmang The Evil. Somehow he brought a black Adam and Superman from earth. The next thing you know you're reading about a Superman on earth asking Shazam why he's not on his own earth, and that's when a fight breaks out between them. Superman cared if Shazam was hurt but later Superman is ready to kill Shazam.

    The comic book features Supergirl and Mary Batson. A fight between Superman and Shazam would be great confusion and long. They both throw very hard punches. You would see destruction.

    PLOT & STORYLINE DISCUSSION

    Did you know there was a kryptonite girl? Yes, there was! It was Superman's girlfriend, and we all know who that was. Yes, it was the Lois Lane. You don't believe me? No, she was never a superhero as far as I know, but something happened to her once that could hurt Superman.

    Lois Lane got kryptonite vision by accident, and we know that Superman can't stand kryptonite. This wasn't just a bad thing for Superman, but for Lois Lane too. She always wanted to marry Superman.

    Superman called on Lois Lane one day in the office of the Daily Planet. He gave her a box with some strange objects inside. He told Lois not to touch the objects, and she did not follow his directions, and that's how Lois Lane got kryptonite vision.

    When Superman came back to see Lois, she was wearing sunglasses. But they fell off her eyes, and that's when Superman got a big surprise. He told Lois to look away from him and he even called Lois an idiot for not following his directions.

    You'll find this story in the comic book titled Superman's Girlfriend, Lois Lane. April No. 16. The 1960 issue.

    Spooky the Tuff Little Ghost is a fictional character that appeared in titles published by Harvey Comics. Spooky first appeared in Casper the Friendly Ghost #10 (June 1953). He is Casper's cousin, although their exact relation is never specified. He generally resembles Casper except he has freckles, a derby hat, and a large, black nose.

    Spooky is written with a Brooklyn accent, for example calling his girlfriend and fellow ghost Pearl, "Poil". His iconic derby hat is, therefore, a "doiby". Although he shares traits with The Ghostly Trio as far as loving to scare the living and being somewhat of a tough guy, he is not as cruel to his cousin as the Trio is, though he occasionally makes fun of Casper for being friendly, and Spooky has his moments of goodwill.

    Whenever you saw Spooky in the Harvey Comic Books trying to scare someone, you would see the word ‘boo’ in big bold face letters with an explanation mark. He would blow some of the other characters away with his booing like the wind.

    Hello! I'm Gail Nobles! Welcome to Paudio. Today's topic is Hot Stuff the Little Devil. Hot Stuff is a comic book character created by Warren Kremer. Kremer passed away at the age of 82 July 24, 2003. He was born in the Bronx, the son of a sign painter. Kremer counted Alex Raymond/Gordon and Hal Foster Prince Valiant among his influences.

    Hot Stuff first appeared in Hot Stuff # 1 (October 1957), published by Comics. He was one of my favorite comic book characters by Harvey Comics. Hot Stuff is a mischievous little devil. He is able to produce fire. The little devil's appearance is red. He looks like a red child devil who wears a diaper and carries a magical sentient pitchfork (referred to as his “trusty trident”), which is a character in his own right to the consternation of his demonic brother, Hot Stuff sometimes performs good deeds to irritate them.

    I remember when I first saw Hot Stuff the Little Devil in comics downtown to the bookstore. I was already reading Casper. Then I started buying both Casper and Hot Stuff comic books. I would read them to my brother and sometimes we would laugh. I was seven years older than him but we were both children. Hot Stuff would really get fired up in those comic books.

    He would say things like: They say I'm hotheaded and that makes me boiling mad.

    Hot Stuff would be on the pages with fire coming out of his mouth he would make himself disappear.

    Hot stuff would call the sun a fireball. He was hot like fire but there was something hotter than him. When he would go lay on a block of ice, the ice would melt. He couldn't get no satisfaction. Sometimes he would have things running from him like an apple tree with shade. The tree would lose his apples and all hot stuff would do was eat them. That's how Hot Stuff was.You can find the story of that in comic book number one of October 1957.

    I enjoyed myself reading Hot Stuff. I didn't know that the character was created way back then. I missed a lot of comic book issues.

    Well there you have it. Hot Stuff the Lttle Devil and a brief summary of what he is all about.
