Don't read the comments! After a disastrous outing as Shazam, Mary is the laughingstock of the internet. Will she ever be taken seriously? Now it's up to her to ignore the haters and help those who really need her. The missing-persons problem in Philly has only gotten worse, and our hero is running out of time to find the culprit behind it!
This penultimate issue of New Champion of Shazam! is absolutely, undoubtedly incredible. Read Full Review
Campbell's characters are still appealingly flawed and the world rich and fascinating. And Shaner's art continues to be some of the best in the business. Read Full Review
The New Champion of Shazam! #3 continues Marys story with some good character moments, another epic battle with a great villain and gorgeous artwork from Evan Doc Shaner. Read Full Review
Beyond the needless statement to the trolls, this was another enjoyable issue and worth checking out for Mary Marvel fans. Read Full Review
Campbell and Shaner make The New Champion of Shazam! work on a very social level that keeps Mary close to the reader throughout the action. It would be all too easy to let the action sweep everything away in a more traditional superhero comic. There have been so many instances of young superheroes coming-of-age in comics over the decades, but Campbell and Shaner manage to keep everything feeling so specific to Mary. Its quite an accomplishment. Read Full Review
The issue also offers another run-in between Mary and one of these soldiers, this one who has the ability to turn someone's worst thoughts against them. Mary, now a popular meme who everyone has an opinion about, has more than enough to brew over which eventually boils over leading to a confrontation with her foster sister leading to some rash action and setting up the mini-series' final issue.

There are some great developments in this issue, I just really wish that there was more time to really flesh out what's going on in this mini-series because everything just comes to a head here simply because it had to. That being said though, the art was great and we get some great callbacks to old Captain Marvel lore, not to mention the villain who uses his words to hurt people. Read Full Review
This needs to continue after the fourth issue.
I enjoyed this issue, but I have no idea how they are going to wrap it up in one issue. Her regret for yelling at Darla that propels the cliffhanger was a good move. Of course, we get the "don't look at the comments" scene that's been used a million times. I like bringing in Duddley as well. Never thought I'd see that character again.
