    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.

    • @georgetinker1292
      @georgetinker1292 6 років тому +8

      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.

    • @jeremycline9542
      @jeremycline9542 6 років тому

      +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.

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.

  • @Paxchi
    @Paxchi 6 років тому +2

    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.

      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

    I totally agree. Shazam is so underrated.
    I still find the Injustice version troubling. Since he was taken out so quickly. I could understand if he was in his human form and just dressed in a version of his hero costume. But they play it out like he was in his super form. But with all the powers of his gods, I don't understand why he died so easily.

      ryudragon7 I’m pretty sure he was a teenager during that part of the story and hadn’t actually transformed into Shazam yet, he was just using the costume.

    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.

    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.
