Billy Batson (Asher Angel) tem apenas 14 anos de idade, mas recebeu de um antigo mago o dom de se transformar num super-herói adulto chamado Shazam (Zachary Levi). Ao gritar a palavra SHAZAM!, o adolescente se transforma nessa sua poderosa versão adulta para se divertir e testar suas habilidades.

Grunenwald: What can you tell us about the villains that he’s going to be facing in this book? Are we going to see any of the classics or do you have have new characters in mind?
Grunenwald: That’s great. Dan, you’ve been drawing Superman in World’s Finest for give or take twelve issues now. As you’re switching over to draw Shazam, is there anything that you keep in mind when you’re drawing Shazam to physically differentiate him from Superman? Aside from, they have different faces.
Junto com Liu e Mirren, a equipe principal de Shazam! de 2019 está voltando para a sequência, incluindo Zachary Levi como o super-herói Shazam e Asher Angel como seu alter ego adolescente, Billy Batson. ... Fúria dos Deuses (ou Shazam! 2) está programado para estrear em junho de 2023.
Na verdade, se trata de um acrônimo cujas letras representam seis entidades, ou “campeões”, que dão a Billy Batson seus poderes: S de Salomão (Sabedoria), H de Hércules (força física), A de Atlas (resistência e invulnerabilidade), Z de Zeus (magia), o outro A de Aquiles (coragem), e por fim, M de Mercúrio (velocidade e ...
Originalmente, admitia-se que Capitão marvel e todos os personagens relacionados viviam na Terra S, uma dimensão a parte da Terra Paralela principal da DC, a Terra 1, onde estava a Liga da Justiça. A revista Shazam! foi bimestral (nos EUA), durou 35 números, de 19.
Grunenwald: It seems like you’re pulling in a lot of elements that just interest you. I don’t know you personally, but I feel like you love the Doom Patrol, and I feel like you really like Metamorpho, so it’s fun to see those sort of elements brought in. Maybe I shouldn’t ask this if the possibility arises, but are there other things that you have in mind that you’re excited to get to, or that you can’t wait to find a spot to use?
Grunenwald: Mark, most of your DC work over the past year has been pretty tightly connected, where one thing sort of leads into the next. Obviously it’s a shared universe, but are you approaching it all as one giant epic? Or is that just sort of how it’s worked out for you?
Por isso, embora seja uma aplicação sem uma função essencial para o computador, o Shazam pode ser um ótimo aliado dos amantes da música. O aplicativo funciona a partir de uma janela bem simples, cuja tela inicial possui apenas um botão.
Billy Batson is back in the spotlight. Aside from the recent release of the second Shazam! feature film, DC is set to launch a new ongoing series for The World’s Mightiest Mortal. Debuting as part of this year’s ongoing Dawn of DC initiative, the new Shazam! series comes from the World’s Finest creative team of writer Mark Waid and artist Dan Mora, joined on the title by colorist Alejandro Sánchez and letterer Troy Peteri. Set in the aftermath of the recent Lazarus Planet event which saw all the DC Universe’s magic users experiencing disruptions in their powers, the new series finds Billy Batson unable to share his abilities with the rest of his family, and facing threats old, new, and super-weird as only he can.
Interestingly enough, Waid has written Billy Batson before - way back in 1996's Kingdom Come, which presented a very different version of Shazam! who is mind controlled by Lex Luthor into fighting Superman to a standstill.
But don't fret World's Finest fans. As it turns out, neither Waid nor Mora is leaving series Silver Age-inspired series when Shazam! launches - nor is the Batman-Superman team-up series set in the past ending. Instead, Newsarama understands that Waid and Mora will continue on both titles with the upcoming Shazam! title to run concurrently with Batman/Superman: World's Finest starting in June when Shazam! #1 arrives.
Grunenwald: Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. When you wrote him in Underworld Unleashed, the crux of that story is that Billy is a pure soul that can’t be corrupted. Do you feel like that’s still true when you write the character today?
The Beat chatted with Waid and Mora separately about working on Shazam!, what their collaborative relationship is like, and how The Captain ended up riding a dinosaur in the first issue. You can find that, as well as an unlettered preview of Shazam! #1 showcasing Mora and Sánchez’s artwork, below.
Grunenwald: What’s Billy’s relationship with his family like right now? He had been sharing his powers with them, and now that’s sort of cut off. I imagine there’s probably some strain there. Can you talk about that a little bit?
Joe Grunenwald: Mark, you’ve written Shazam as a supporting character a few times in the past, but this is the first time you’ve really gotten to dig into him. Is writing a Shazam solo book something you’ve always wanted to do?
Grunenwald: The first issue has a very classic look, very reminiscent of the early Shazam illustrations. Beyond the character specifically, do you feel like you’re doing anything differently with your art on this book? Are you are you doing anything consciously just to try and try and stretch a little bit as an artist?
