You are fully correct. That whole part was bs, superman's Lazer would be annoying to him not killing. Shazam is underrated, he is stronger than superman. Sad world.
TheTeamster Local282NY bullshit. Power if Zeus the king of Gods a Immortal dude who can throw fucking lightning. Strength of freaking hercules... come on dude
@@dogman5028 now THATS Original! I agree! He-Man is just as Powerful and deadly, Capt Marvel, He-man, Thor and Thundercats cross over because Lion-O again just like He-Man, he's just as powerful!
I am Billy Bateson from Philadelphia Defender if the rock of eternity This is my family, the other fosters Fabulous secret powers were revealed to me the day I yelled the magic word “SHAZAM!” Me and my family became the Shazam family, the most powerful heroes in the universe Together we defend the Rock of Eternity from the enemies of man!
You bring up a great point: why IS he so underrated? DC editorial might have tried to downplay him over the years because of the less than noble way they treated Fawcett Comics. However, that's all set to change after, hopefully, a good movie. Creators are certainly behind the character.
Jeremy Cline I believe it's when treated well? His story is more compelling than superman. And,like Batman. It's more believable. With Batman he's what we could be if we had the money and drive. But,with CAPTAIN MARVEL!(What can I say? I'm a"purist".) He's what we were when you tied that towel around your neck and flew thru the backyard as a kid. He was that. And,they never really capitalized that. Now image comics had a knockoff character named Prime? That was a good book and was a cartoon. It really played up the angle of boy becomes superhero.
+George Tinker I actually agree with you, and I think DC is beating Marvel to the punch because they will have a kid superhero, and from the cast list they look to be starting a Marvel Family like the recent Geoff John's version. Zachary Levi described it as Big meets Superman but with the magical elements I think that will add to the appeal. If the film works, Marvel might regret not adding the Sam Alexander Nova to their cinematic universe earlier.
I instantly fell in love with the new 52 version of Shazam. The story and concept is amazing and I really expect the upcoming movie to be the Deadpool of DCEU
Shazam is SO underrated! He almost IS Superman, and his weakness can seem a heck of a lot cooler than some green rock or a red sun. His enemy is himself, having to use a child's mind properly. Kind of reminds me of Salvaxe from New 52...
Maybe he can team up with his old Saturday morning partner Al Qaeda err I mean Isis. Or maybe not. :( I did love that show as a kid. Not very watchable today though.
I'd still pick Shazam over Superman any day. Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't flash way faster than Superman, and Shazam caught the flash.? After supes himself told Billy he was the only one who could pull it off.
Johnny8Inch Yep. And he said this *to* Superman, by the way. While they were running side-by-side... and then he immediately proceeded to ditch Superman in an instant. A nanosecond later, Superman couldn't even see Flash, let alone even *try* to keep up with him.
Billy's sacrifice in Kingdom Come is my definition of the character. It is absolutely horrifying when he reveals himself as a tool of Lex Luthor. The confrontation between Superman and Captain Marvel isn't about power. It's about faith and believing that you can take a stand for a better world.
So excited to finally see his live action movie next April, really hoping the film lives up to the hype knowing that this great DC icon has been a long time favorite for seven decades who for a while was more popular than Superman back in the 40's
Shazam is my favorite superhero. He has the courage of Achilles which is one reason because Achilles is my first name irl. And I love that he’s just a normal kid who was approached by a wizzard out of nowhere
I’m hope Dc continues the story of Billy Batson from The Possession of Billy Batson. With good storytelling and the correct writer it could become the best version of Shazam! I would definitely read it!
abdel hak benyache You think I care what people think let alone you? Shazam came before Goku so Goku is literally like Shazam rather than the other way around. Facts. It doesn't matter if people "thinks" Goku is first when in reality Shazam is first. In your mind Justin Bieber is the greatest male artist of all time because generation Z doesn't realize people like Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson existed. I know why people think Goku is first, they're still wrong. Geesh. You ad hominem using douchebag. And yes the irony of my use of ad hominems here.
abdel hak benyache Psh your sarcasm sucks. You used the "f" word first, so you can't pin that on me. And your logic says Bieber is the best. Hey man it's not me. It's you.
Shazam has been my favourite superhero from dc ever since young justice. And i get that seeing him go from being that happy, upstanding kid who doesnt act like a delinquent to someone who is, is hard to digest but i like his character more for it. Especially the line where he said that no one in the world can he all good, and that he tried but failed. And after that. It created a more stronger interest for me.
So glad you mentioned Mazahs. Shazam/Captain Marvel is one of my favorite heros and I am a huge fan of alternate dimensions and Earth 3, or the mirror dimension as I call it, is one of my favorites.
I still have some good memories of the old TV series, from the 70s,(live action and animated, respectively). Maybe you could do a show on those as the movie draws closer?
As a kid I use to always call him Shazam, even after knowing he was Capt. Marvel. I'm kinda glad Marvel Comics got the rights to the Capt Marvel trademark, because now I can call him Shazam & be right.
Up until carol Danvers Marvels Many roster of Captain Marvels are just corporate placeholders so that Marvel can keep the trademark, Whilst Captain Marvel up until new 52 was the name associated with Billy Batson.
@@killerchampion7554 Naw. I liked Monica Rambeau as Capt Marvel, when I was a kid. I used to like Carol Danvers as Ms. Marvel/Warbird, especially in that black leotard.
@@rugalthreesixteen6812 Yea, I know that as an adult, but I was confused when both DC & then Marvel had their own "Capt. Marvel". I always liked Monica Rambeau as Capt Marvel. I always liked Carol as "Ms Marvel", especially when she had that black leotard. I always called Bill Batson "Shazam", even though I knew his "hero name" was "Capt Marvel", back then. It kind of made it easier for my bro & me to talk about the 2 characters w/o getting confused.
@@itsgamer9324 Wasn't his movie called "Shazam" & not "Capt Marvel"? I didn't watch either because that MCU movie wasn't appealing to me. & I've pretty much given up on DC movies. 🤷♂️
Minor quibble, but they didn't change Captain Marvel's name to "Shazam" for the Nu-52 relaunch. They created an entirely new character called "Shazam". The original Captain Marvel has shown up in Thunderworld, Convergence: Shazam and a few other books, showing that Captain Marvel is still alive and well, just off in an alternate Earth away from all of the mess the current DCU is. The "Shazam" we got in the Nu-52 is basically to Captain Marvel what the Ultimates Captain America is to the actual Captain America: a much darker character without any of the idealism and optimism of the source hero, and turned him into a jerk. They gave him a different personality, power source, costume, origin even a new name. So yeah, Captain Marvel and "Shazam" are the same character in the same way the Earth-1 Superman and Earth-3 Ultraman are the same character. So yeah, the only versions of the character you can really call "Shazam" are the one on the Nu-52 Earth, the Injustice version, the version from the Justice League War/Atlantis movies, and the one in Justice League Action. With the exception of the Captain Thunder versions that popped up, all other versions of the character, including the original and classic version, are called Captain Marvel.
I absolutely adored Miracle Man (formerly known as Marvel Man) by Alan Moore. He's an awesome british version of Captain Marvel/Shazam and Moore gave him some badass storylines in the mid-80s :)
kevaughn merrill no brother not that what i mean, I love the OG Shazam suit I’m trying to say whether this suit were terrible in design , I’m afraid that it would be like my other favourite GL suit in live action. This live action suit look so tight and somewhere like pajamas kind of. In my opinion , I don’t know if they edit it later
kevaughn merrill they have been official photos that why I’m saying this I would not say something without knowing it Just I hope the storyline of this movie will not be ruin , Shazam were my favourite after Redhood...
I wish they had made his name Captain Thunder instead of Shazan. They could also change Freddie Freeman name to Captain Lightning cause Captain Marvel Jr doesn't make sense anymore.
6:43 it's made more petty when his objection involves him pointing out the obvious: Lois wouldn't have wanted this. It was seeing Superman killing a child that shows how far he's fallen beyond anything else.
I still have Superman 276, where Superman fights Captain Thunder. I bought it fresh off the presses in '74, when I was six. I've must of read it a thousand times.
DC should rectify Mercury as the god that gives him speed; they did that somehow in The Darkseid War. Doesn´t make sense because the Greek gods are the ones that inhabit DC; on Earth 1 at least. In the New 52, on the Earth 2 comic, they established that there is where the Romans gods exist. Not just for Jay Garrick to get his powers/helmet look but also as Wonder Woman´s universe.
That's actually a good question considering that DC already has a Golden Age character named Captain Thunder that they don't use anymore and still have the rights to.
+I Want To Die. I mean so in The Shazam Movie.. Picture this, let's say Shazam Stops The Main Villain and a Group of Reporters come in , What if he says his name is Shazam and turns into his normal self.. I mean it would be funny to see that scene but i don't want that. It'll probably be best to call him Captain Thunder but Shazam! Is his name:.
Dark Knight Returns' Captain Marvel saying he and Billy switch places is clearly a nod to Marvel Comics Marv-L (or Mar-Vell, depending on who's writing). Captain Marvel/Rick Jones would bang together their Negaband bracelets and one would replace the other in the Negative Zone. Fawcett/DC Captain Marvel has always been accepted to be Billy Batson in an adult body with the other mystical enhancements. EDIT: Had to correct a couple of autocorrect changes.
Hulk will come out before the movie in 2021, avengers will come out before april 27, venom will come out before whenever the movie is released. Thor might never come out
This Shazam costume is horrendous!! Not every comic costume would translate in real life movies, perfect example if Hughe Jackman where to wear wolverine's comic book custume that would be ridiculous!!
I don't think the costume would look exactly like that on screen since they will probably add some special effects to the costume, still I agree that they could've change the design of the costume a bit making the red darker and the yellow a gold
I liked Zack Levy when he played CHUCK, but Shazam should been played by John Cena or an actor who can carry the physical attributes of Captain Marvel.
I still hate the name Shazam for him....and would even prefer him being called Captain Billy previously known as Captain Marvel No Trademark Infringement Intended.
I believe you take something away from Billy when they made him a snotty punk. It was his good heart and sense of fairness that made him such a good character. It is seen in Young Justice and Justice League Unlimited.
Personally. New 52 shazam is my favorite because it shows billy grow as a character instead of it being all shazam and billy used as a mere happy go lucky plot device.
I've always felt the way Superman killed him in Injustice was some b.s.
trence5 yes. I thought he couldn’t die in that form.
Tammy Kat he’s only supposed to be vulnerable to magic otc so that was bs how he just laser visioned him
You are fully correct. That whole part was bs, superman's Lazer would be annoying to him not killing. Shazam is underrated, he is stronger than superman. Sad world.
Rohit Singh I wouldn’t say stronger,maybe more powerful,and could beat Superman
My explanation is that he killed billy and he covered his mouth so he wouldent say the magic word
So this dude has the attributes of Gods and no one is saying he's not more powerful then superman? This is ridiculous.
MyMedsDontWork he is probably the same they are pretty much equals although shazam could probably bear him if he had full power
Mhussain 09 he's basically the mystical version of Superman
Hanif Huzairi basically
TheTeamster Local282NY valid point tho
TheTeamster Local282NY bullshit. Power if Zeus the king of Gods a Immortal dude who can throw fucking lightning. Strength of freaking hercules... come on dude
Shazam is my favorite DC superhero and one of my favorite superheroes of all time.
i liked him too ,till i saw that stupid trailer. comedy no ffing way
brian cureton comedy was actually funny for the most part. Since usually comedy in these movies aren’t
Yea me too he’s dope
He’s also my Favorite superhero of all time. One reason being that he has courage of Achilles because Achilles is actually my first name IRL
Captain Marvel (Shazam) has always been one of my favorite heroes. I can't wait for the film. Hope it does the character justice.
I’m from the future, it does

This is just my opinion but I prefer the new 52 origin because I think it's works better in the modern times we live in.
I like Shazam than Superman.
In my opinion,Shazam is very muscular in the comics and Zach Levi is not.
kirby march Barcena He just released a training photo of himself on Insta. He is pretty buff and his six pack isn't tight but it's still present
look at him noow biaatch ! jk i love you!
Yesssss! Shazam is so underrated, very hyped for the movie.
In the first 2 frames of this video, the first character you can see reflected on the Variant animated logo is Shazam.
Do shazam vs thor
Has anyone noticed that Shazam doesn’t actually have the wisdom of Solomon
That's always been my issue. It's like thor without the hammer or Captain America without the shield
Mr Clean he does
Gotta say, new 52 is my favorite. I love the use of more lightning as a power. Its like combining Superman and Thor or Raiden

Maryam Ahmad i am a very big fan of this character . I can't wait to see him kicking ass of darkseid

MR Dot1 continuity dude, they never remember about it
Alternate versions of Thor
Alternate versions of Hulk
Alternate versions of The Avengers
Alternate versions of Venom
Hulk will come out before the movie in 2021, avengers will come out before april 27, venom will come out before whenever the movie is released. Thor might never come out
No
I always wanted a black Shazaam. Thanks for showing me there was alot of them.
I’ve always liked Shazam and felt like he was underrated and under appreciated in DC.
Why is shazam in dark knight old? Isnt black adam like 1000 years old and is not looking that old
Snoopier Creed i thought the same
Alternate world, different abilities...best I could come up with.
It was Miller playing up the idea of the concept "World's Mightiest MORTAL".
Maybe once his mortal counterpart died, he started aging.
This Shazam costume is horrendous!! Not every comic costume would translate in real life movies, perfect example if Hughe Jackman where to wear wolverine's comic book custume that would be ridiculous!!
I don't think the costume would look exactly like that on screen since they will probably add some special effects to the costume, still I agree that they could've change the design of the costume a bit making the red darker and the yellow a gold
People said the same about captain america and Thor.
With some tweaks the costume came out pretty accurate and they look great
The fake muscles are a bit much
will be covered in CGI lightning
I liked Zack Levy when he played CHUCK, but Shazam should been played by John Cena or an actor who can carry the physical attributes of Captain Marvel.
so many shazam characters and i know only the original one but he is one my fvrt
Love the host and show great job man
I still hate the name Shazam for him....and would even prefer him being called Captain Billy previously known as Captain Marvel No Trademark Infringement Intended.
I've always liked Captain Marvel since my childhood, and the pics by Alex Ross, to me, are the best
4:06 It's more brutal in the animated adaptation, where the killing blow comes from Diana herself. She runs Billy through with her sword off camera.
DC Metal #6 came out today too and it's awesome. It's got a pretty awesome ending too, though I feel a bit empty reading it.
You're the best Arris! I also like S.H.A.Z.A.M.
You are so right. He is criminally underrated
Superman: I don’t kill kids. Blue beetle: what bout billy
Please do a History of Captain Atom, it would be a such a great and informing video.
I believe you take something away from Billy when they made him a snotty punk. It was his good heart and sense of fairness that made him such a good character. It is seen in Young Justice and Justice League Unlimited.
LOL! he's going to touch on all of them LMAO
Good job, Mage!
Personally. New 52 shazam is my favorite because it shows billy grow as a character instead of it being all shazam and billy used as a mere happy go lucky plot device.
