Bump if you're reading.
>>144336041You know what I'm immediately picking up here?Them trying to de-age Billy and making him younger than Mary and Freddy.
And that's it. If you liked this, support your LCS or whatever.
I love how that emotional bombshell that Billy's mom is alove and want to adopt him fet dropped harder than a sack of mold potatoes.Fuck being human and digesting that, we need whatever mindless noise this was.
>>144336106They really should've just made him black.
This wasn’t great while Waid was on it but now it’s absolutely atrocious. The art is hideous, the “Billy’s having trouble with his powers” shit is overdone and annoying and I’m so fucking sick of Mary being the focus of this shit.
>>144336225We have Malik White for that.
>>144336225Why?
They gave up on this shit.
>>144336692Because Darla is black and her last name is Dudley.
>>144337763Well why wouldn't they when they know another reset coming?

Mary and Freddy have tracked Billy down to the unused tunnels of SEPTA — but the monsters plaguing Philly have followed them, too. With Billy refusing to turn into the Captain, can Mary and Freddy turn the tide and figure out what's causing the monster onslaught? Can they convince Billy to come home?

WILL BILLY FINALLY SAY THE MAGIC WORD?Things go from bad to worse as the evil society behind the latest monster attack is finally revealed. With Philly literally crumbling beneath their feet, it's up to Billy and Mary to stop the city from sinking, but is the danger great enough for Billy to utter those magic words? And without powers, how in the world can Freddy help? Well, he might get the chance to change that - and his choice will send shockwaves through the Shazam family!
>>144339076Oh jesus fuck I guess it's freddy's turn to be the only with the powers?
>>144338728She's mixed, it's progressive!
>>144336121Eyyy King Kull is back.>>144339119Didn't they already do that in the 2000s?
>>144336015>>144336020That’s not what Freddy looked like post-Nu52, but I’m okay with that.
>>144339091Is this Pedro?
>>144339311They're trying to ditch some of the New 52 stuff in favor of the more iconic looks.
>>144339311Yeah for Hispanic month or whatever.
>>144339816Honestly it's pretty funny how DC is still doing this heritage month coversI don't think Marvel is even pretending anymore. They completely skipped over the Asian Month
>>144336121Thanks
>>144336106oh shit
well that kind of sucked
>>144339207They did and now they're gonna do it again because this is the only story they know to tell with Shazam.
>>144340943Seriously, taking the wizard's place, losing his powers, getting infected by Batkek, having his powers malfunction, getting trapped in the Rock of Eternity, being replaced by Mary and/or Freddy, the gods trying to take control, Cap developing into his own unique person, holy fucking SHIT.Enough with the stories that don't let Billy actually use his powers, this shit is just tiring.
>>144339816 meant for >>144339377
>>144336015>>144336020>Freddy FreemanReally curious how they'll deal with Freddy getting Powers again, clearly Mary Marvel and Uncle Marvel are fine >>144336106, but Billy just has to be "The Captain", which is fine by me, but I'm not sure if "The Captain Jr." would work.
>>144341688Everybody loves Billy Batson, they love Billy so much that they put Billy on a pedestal behind a velvet rope where no one can touch him. That way we can all stand back and admire what we all love about Billy which is his complete lack of agency.
>>144341688>>144342003Something that I noticed that it's real easy for writers like Mark Waid to criticize other writers like Geoff Johns for how they wrote Shazam but in doing so they write a crappier Shazam story.
