4. Movie – SHAZAM!
Comic – Convergence: SHAZAM!
Shazam! may be the DCEU film for which I have the greatest expectations.
It’s such a great premise that it would be hard to make it not fun. It’s that Tom Hanks movie Big, but with superpowers. Billy Batson is a young orphan boy gifted with the ability to turn into a big strapping superhero named either Captain Marvel or Shazam, depending on the version of the character, by use of a magic word. That word: SHAZAM!
This two-part story comes from the DC Convergence event, in which various alternate realities were mashed together and told to fight. This two-parter by Jeff Parker and Evan “Doc” Shaner is fun, exciting, and so, so beautiful. I want a page of Doc Shaner art so bad. I would do terrible things for one. And his Shazam art is spectacular.
The square-jawed heroism on display is rad, and seeing the Marvel Family take on the Gotham by Gaslight universe is a neat crossover. There are a ton of great Shazam stories out there, but this one is just super fun.
