Chosen from among all others by the immortal elders Solomon, Hercules,

Atlas, Zeus, Achilles, Mercury, Billy Batson and his mentor travel the

highways and byways of the land on a never-ending mission to right wrongs, to

develop understanding, and to seek justice for all.

In time of dire need, young Billy has been granted the power by the immortals

to summon awesome forces at the utterance of a single word.

word which transforms him in a flash into the mightiest of mortal beings,

Captain Marvel.

work. I'm in charge. Come on home. No!

I've got to check.

Chad? Chad?

Chad?

Wow,

it sure is a great thing I leave the station, isn't it?

Especially up here where it's so peaceful and quiet.

Is that lightning?

Possibly. Then again, it may be someone trying to get your attention, Billy.

Holy moly, it's the elders.

Late.

Oh, elders, fleet and strong and wise, appear before my seeking eyes.

Someday your own image, your own identity must be revealed to save a

human life. Oh, I'm not sure I understand, Solomon.

You may meet someone less fortunate than you, someone who feels he cannot cope

with society.

But you can be the one to show him how wrong he is, how worthwhile he can

really be.

I can?

Now, perhaps by remembering what the poet Wordsworth once said, that best

portion of a good man's life.

is his little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and of love.

Elders, you talk of love and courage, but I'm not sure what it all means.

It is not our intention that you understand everything clearly now,

Billy, only that you will use this knowledge when you need it. But

Solomon... Good luck.

Mentor, do you understand what they were talking about?

Yeah, probably but don't ask me to explain it.

I'm afraid it's something you must learn for yourself Can't even give me a hint.

Oh sure I can But I'm forbidden to

Yeah, I think so. You gave us quite a scare, son.

My name is Billy. What's yours?

You may meet someone less fortunate than you. Someone who feels he cannot cope

with society.

Well, you're blind.

Don't worry.

It's not catching.

Ease up, man. I'm not hassling you.

Don't worry.

It's just that ever since I lost my sight, people treat me like I got some

kind of disease or something.

Especially my brother.

Dad!

He comes now.

Hey, what's going on?

Hey, what happened to your head?

I fell. It's no big deal.

Oh, Chad, why didn't you listen to me?

It was only about a year ago that my brother became blind and...

Well, he can't take care of himself too well yet. I can, too.

Quit bugging me, Danny.

Hey, could we give you two fellows a lift home?

All right, thanks.

Come on, Chad.

I'm not helpless!

If you like sticking around, I can fix that bumper for you, mentor.

Yeah, I can help, too.

You better not, Chad.

You can get hurt messing around with tools.

Wait, Danny, maybe Chad can. Forget it.

I've only kind of worried about him lately.

He's been real moody.

Well, perhaps, if I may be so blunt, Danny, part of his problem could be the

way you overprotect him.

Well, when our folks are working, I have to protect him.

Well, he sure can't take care of himself.

How do you know they let him try

Chad

it's me Billy.

Can I come in?

That best portion of a good man's life is his little, nameless,

unremembered acts of kindness and of love.

Tom Sawyer.

Oh, it's all in Braille.

Have you read this?

I read all those books.

What do you want with me anyhow?

Nothing. Just like to be your friend, that's all.

Why? Feeling sorry for me?

No, man. I just thought we could do some stuff together.

Like what?

Sell pencils on street corners?

Okay, you're blind.

But so are a lot of other people.

Like Jose Feliciano.

Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder.

So? So they proved being blind doesn't make any less of a person.

How would you know?

You're not blind.

No. I'll bet you're more tuned in to sounds and smells and feeling things

than I am.

Well, try smelling sunshine sometime.

I got a better idea.

Wait at the top of the stairs, Chad. Okay.

Okay, Chad.

Now listen to the sound of the bell.

All right? The sound of the bell.

Good boy, Chad. Now throw it back to me. Listen to my voice and throw it right

back to me.

Good boy.

All right, now once more. The sound of the bell.

Good boy, Chad.

I don't believe it.

For a lad who feels useless. I say that your brother has pretty fair hands.

I'm just afraid he's going to get hurt messing around like that. Oh, that's a

chance he has to take.

Look at that smile.

Well, just the same. I'd better keep an eye on him.

All right, now once more.

Good boy, Chad.

He's getting good, isn't he, Danny?

Yeah, real good.

Just be careful, Chad.

See what I mean?

He'll get it together, Danny.

Just give him time.

Jack!

He certainly is leading us a merry chase, isn't he?

Well, maybe we better split up and cover a wider area.

Yeah, and we can meet back here later.

Right. Well, good luck.

Jan!

Hitler bit me.

Got me in the leg.

Are you putting me on?

I'm not putting you on.

I gotta get help. No. Moving on around like that will just spread that poison

faster. Now you rest here and I'll go for help.

How are you gonna make it? You can't see.

I'll make it. Now you just lie down and keep that leg low.

He's been bitten by a rattler. Holy moly. Where is he now?

About a mile back, I guess.

Well, there's only one person who can lead us to him, and that's you, Chad.

You think you can do it?

Well, I got Danny into this. I'll get him out.

Attaboy. There's one other problem.

Danny may need snake bite serum, and our paramedic gets back in the van.

Our only chance to get it in time is Captain Marvel. Captain Marvel?

Do what you must do, Billy.

Billy. Someday your own image, your own identity must be revealed to save a

human life.

Chad, let me ask you to keep a secret.

Promise never to tell anyone what's about to happen here today.

I don't know. What are you going to... Chad, just promise me.

Okay, I promise.

I'm fine, Chad, but I'm no longer Billy.

That voice, I've heard it.

On the TV news.

You're Captain Marvel.

That's right.

And that's a secret we must share.

Oh, don't worry, Captain Marvel.

I'll never tell anybody.

Chad, the success of this depends on you. Good luck.

He really moves out.

Which way is it to Danny, Chad?

There's an old dead tree that creeps in the wind.

It's this way.

This way.

Chad?

Who am I kidding?

It's probably watered around lost out there.

lost, Mentor.

We'll never find Danny.

He's going to die, Mentor.

Don't panic, Chad. Get a hold of yourself.

Look, I know you're afraid. So am I.

But we've got to stay calm and think this thing out.

Now, try once more to get your bearings.

Oh, it's no use. I can't. Come on, try.

Wait.

We're still on the right track, mentor.

I remember smelling that stagnant water.

Yes, I smell it now.

Good work, Jack.

My jacket.

He's gone. He's gone, Mampour. You sure this is the spot?

Yeah, I think so.

My jacket, I'm sure.

Must have set out on his own.

anything broken how do you feel probably well we'll take care of that right now

valley

Before administering serum, the victim must undergo a sensitivity test.

We'll talk you through it.

Roger.

Just relax, Danny.

Everything's going to be all right now.

How are you feeling now, Danny?

A lot better, thanks to you, Captain Marvel.

Well, you should really thank Chad here.

He led us right to you.

I never thought you'd pull it off.

That's why I tried walking out on my own.

Looks like I was the one that almost messed everything up.

Well, maybe we all learned something today.

About ourselves and each other, huh?

Hey, where's Billy?

Oh, uh... I'm sure we'll find him back at the house, keeping your mom and dad

company. Right, Chad?

Right, Captain Morrow.

how much sounds can tell you.

Huh? For example?

Well, the sound of the tires tells me we're on an asphalt highway.

Very good.

What else?

The sound of the motor tells me that we're running out of gas.

What?

Oh, no.

That last gas station is two miles back.

If only Captain Marvel could lend a hand.

If there's no one around, it'd be perfect, huh?

It was just a thought.
