Thanks! I hope none of that came off as hostile towards you or any poster here. Any ill will I have is towards DC's mishandling of the character since Infinite Crisis (God, has it been 13 years?),...

On a side note, for anime/manga fans or those who'd be interested in getting into anime/manga, I'd recommend a relatively new series called My Hero Academia / Boku no Hīrō Akademia, which feels like...

Regarding “Billy being pushed around”, classic Billy never had trouble standing up for himself. Even in his earliest stories, the first time some older kids tried to bully him, Billy fought right...

Mark Strong as Dr. Sivana is kind of interesting, as he did play a sort of Super Scientist in "The Kingsmen", and played a pretty effective villain in the RDJ Sherlock Holmes movie, so I think this...

I prefer a sort of hybrid of the first two. Billy owns his own apartment, but Dudley owns the apartment building, and the latter has a soft spot for hard luck cases, so he often doesn't ask a lot of...

Billy often developed a number of minor magical abilities over time, including the ability to sense the presence of magic and whether that magic was good or bad. I'd probably go with something...

Mr. Levi had some strong (and NSFW) words for the folks who don't like the outfit.

It's also worth noting that Captain Marvel has appeared in comics, animated series, live action series, animated movies and had merchandise of all kind sold with him since the 70's as well, all while...

I actually like the "look" of the costume, in that it actually looks like a superhero costume from the shot. There aren't a lot of excess lines, weird texturing, and it doesn't look like armor. Heck,...

I kind of feel bad for JLAction. I'm not really a fan of the show, but they seem sort of stuck in their desire to do something lighthearted and include Billy/Captain Marvel in the series. They...

Meanwhile, in a secret bunker, Sivana has been experimenting with the scarab, and has made contact with Black Adam. Sivana explains that the blue scarab is helping the mystical scarab keep Adam...

I really hope all of the signs pointing to a Shazam film primarily inspired by the "Curse of Shazam" storyline prove to be incorrect, because to me at least, it would be a mistake. If you're going to...

My vote would be for Billy to be in control of the Capt. Marvel form with no behavior changes from his powers. At least, none that come directly from his powers. Solomon enhances his senses to mystic...

You know, given how horribly handled Lex Luthor was in Batman v. Superman, a Captain Marvel movie would be a great chance to bring in Dr. Sivana as an antagonist, making him a full on mad scientist,...

Bingo. Furthermore, there is precedent for this kind of thing. In the 80s, the makes of the Ghostbusters movie discovered that there had been a Filmation tv series called "The Ghost Busters", and...

Captain Marvel was created in 1941 by Fawcett Comics. Superman was owned by National Comics (later known as DC Comics). Captain Marvel's books were the only books that could consistently compete...

Even Post-Fawcett, Captain Marvel has been featured in comics, television, animation, toys, video games and the like for roughly 40 years before the 2011 re-branding, all of which sold fine and the...

They can't print the words "Captain Marvel" on the covers of books, on the packaging of merchandise, on movie posters or appear during a commercial. However, they can have "Captain Marvel" appear all...

From what I remember, that whole arc was written by Jerry Ordway, not Geoff Johns. From what I can recall, Ordway said that he was going to have an arc where they kind of sorted out the Trials of...

Agreed. If they HAVE to change his name, if Captain Marvel is just not an option anymore, then Captain Thunder is at least a nice compromise, you can have the Thunder Family, you don't need to jump...

I've got mixed feelings about this.

Dwayne Johnson would be good and bad for a Marvel Family film franchise trying to establish itself. On the one hand, Johnson is very charismatic, athletic and...

Which is something I'd support, to an extent, at least in the case of PoS: Dead Earth or PoS: 1M. To me, Billy becoming the Wizard should be akin to Thor becoming the new ruler of Asgard, taking on...

Yup. They introduced this idea back in an issue of World's Finest, where the Champion traveled to the future to ask Captain Marvel for help. It was revealed that as the Champion, Shazam had protected...

Heh, it's kind of funny, but one of the more recent Star Wars comics had a character named Dr. Aphra be annoyed with Luke Skywalker. Aphra is generally a sarcastic, annoying, bratty and generally...

I never really saw Billy as a "Child of Destiny". There wasn't any legend foretelling the birth of the Chosen One who would bring Hope to the World as its Mightiest Mortal. Billy being the only...
