From Captain Marvel: "Crusher of Crime" by C.C. Beck, Whiz Comics #20 (August 1941)
If you took exception to Mark Strong's version of Sivana in the Shazam! movie, in particular the idea that he is a physical match to the Big Red Cheese, just know that he was in the comics too, for at least one story. Until Cap punched him right out of his tuxedo-wearing robot bodysuit! Man, now I wish THAT had made it to the film...
From "The Beast-Ruler" by Geroge Tuska, Captain Marvel Adventures #3 (September 1941)
...or maybe this: Sivana essentially builds a Frankenstein's Tarzan who goes on to attack Captain Marvel with his animal friends. I was gonna say, you really can't make this stuff up, except the people at Fawcett Comics evidently did!
