Shazam! John Davey (Captain Marvel) born today


John Davey, born June 25, 1939(?), is an actor best known for his portrayal of Captain Marvel in Filmation's Saturday morning TV show Shazam! I wasn't able to find any information on his birthday on-line, but I think my source on FB is pretty reliable. He graduated from high school in Nevada in 1957 so I'm guessing his birth year to be 1939.

Shazam! was only on for a few seasons but I really enjoyed watching him and Isis.
