    Default Shazam and the Shazam Family Appreciation 2020

    Hey It’s Philadelphia’s latest hero team the Lighting League...no wait the Shocking Seven...ah the heck with it lets just call them Shazam and his amazing Shazam Family. While they are fairly new they’ve made some decent appearances in their ongoing(when it’s not delayed), Doomsday Clock(when that’s not delayed), and the Shazam movie and sequel(hopefully not to be delayed because I’m noticing a bad pattern).

    Members: Billy, Mary, Freddy, Darla, Eugene, and Pedro...and apparently a talking tiger

    Volume Appearances: Vol 0/Origins(Collects their new 52 Justice League Backstory) and the current Shazam! Ongoing

    Suffice to say without giving away spoilers, no the family really hasn’t really established hero names for everyone as far as I can recall. Mainly the series has been doing a lot of lore and plot building for the magic realms and for what’s to come in the future when it comes to villains/plot, the SHAZAM family, and Billy himself.

    Superboy Prime? Meh.

    Geoff Johns' updated versions of The Monster Society of Evil? Now THAT is something to get excited about.

    Issue #10 involved some pleasant teasers, but I want MORE.

    It sucks that the other members of the Shazam-ily don’t have superhero names. I hope they still use the name Mary Marvel.

    It's hard to come up with dynamic names with "Shazam" compared to "Marvel."

    They can't. The name, as well as CM3, doesn't make sense when Billy isn't called Captain Marvel.
