Great movie costume but... the Helmet of Nabu needs eye slits!
"The Marvel EIC Chair has a certain curse that goes along with it: it tends to drive people insane, and ultimately, out of the business altogether. It is the notorious last stop for many staffers, as once you've sat in The Big Chair, your pariah status is usually locked in." Christopher Priest
It definitely looks better with the eye holes, but I get what they were going for. The two sides of the helmet are order and chaos, which doesn't really make sense considering Fate is a Lord of Order. But the fact that there are no eye slits makes it seem like Kent has even less control when he puts on the helmet. Nabu can control his actions and he even blinds him. Probably why he carries the helmet most of the time and tries to use it as little as possible. Nabu is as manipulative as he is powerful.
Seeing that picture of his costume show how much detail they put into it.. There are glyphs all over it. Hadn't noticed that before.

Like many JSA fans I’m worried that they’re going to be just fodder for Black Adam, but there is evidence that they actually win the initial fight. The trailer shows Adam in a holding cell, in his human form, while Waller talks about his history. In order to get him to that point the JSA would have to be victorious in the first confrontation.
Maybe Adam overpowers them at first but they regroup and get him to say “Shazam” which leads to a JSA victory.
Brosnan as Fate seems ready to steal the movie. The rest just seems so generic and safe, including Black Adam. Has Khandaq even been mentioned anywhere? I'm guessing thats how this ends with him having his own nation, like an evil version of Wakanda. But honestly I'm really not sure DC is creative enough to even do that.
But I have so many questions since this is set in modern times. Where is Shazam? Where is Superman? Where is Wonder Woman? This is a WWIII/Thanos level threat and the big hitters just sit around and figure the JSA can handle it?
Shared universe problems pretty evident here. The Arrowverse, with all its flaws, did better.
Every day is a gift, not a given right.
I fully expect some kind of Shazam appearance. And I wouldn't rule out Superman, even if it's only a post credit stinger. Rock has shared concept art of Adam fighting Supes. He and Henry Cavill have the same agent. The new WB regime has reportedly been looking to re-sign Cavill.
