Yes, yes, yes, a thousand times yes.
I've been waiting since the Powers of Shazam ended in the 90's for a real Shazam ongoing. (Although 52 was a good facsimile, and the Trials of Shazam was conversely a tragedy).

Hopefully its more fun than angsty and moves away from the darker tone of the New 52 backups.

About darn time .
It's probably for the best that they've moved on from Gary Frank. Eaglesham is a worthy successor though.
I kinda feel the same way.
Like, I love the Marvel Family (especially Mary), but just looking at the cover that seems like a lot of characters to be balancing and using when we've only really just gotten to the beginning of Billy's story.
Where does that leave Mary though? they have the same colors ?
The cover makes it look like the book will be pretty fun.
YES!!!!!!! Finally I am getting one of my favorite characters back from limbo!
AKA FlashFreak
Favorite Characters:
DC: The Flash (Jay & Wally), Starman- Jack Knight, Stargirl, & Shazam!.
MARVEL: Daredevil, Spider-Man (Peter Parker), & Doctor Strange.
Current Pulls: Not a thing!
Yay Darla! I am amused at her hair change though.
I'm interested in seeing how this'll go and how/if they try to address them all seemingly vanishing.
Hell yeah, great to see Johns is finally following up on his previous work.
I do hope there's some kind of explanation, if only because such a long time of not being around would usually have some kind of joke about it for a returning book.
It'd be fun if they even tie it into the missing JSA somehow since Cap was on the team for a while under Johns.
"Weird. I can't even remember what we did. We helped that dude who was running fast and everyone kept asking for a Thunderbolt and I thought they meant me. But it's hard to remember them anymore."
What is Eugene's color?
Yeah it was some kind of black or dark grey the first time too.

Excited and I'm glad its continuing off of what Johns did in the New 52. IMO its the last good thing Johns revamped.
It was never that dark to begin with. Outside of Black Adam, who's supposed to be dark. But Billy pretending to be a jerk for all of a couple issues as a defense mechanism was always greatly exaggerated in its awfulness. It took no time at all for it to be revealed his heart was as big as previous iterations, and his brothers and sisters were light-hearted in tone from the word go.
