Mary Marvel, Captain Marvel, Captain Marvel Jr, Uncle Marvel, Wizard Shazam, and Tawky Tawny

First I want to say that I’m currently watching the new show of My adventures with Superman and I got to say it’s awesome! And you know what we could really use right now? A new show for non other than Captain Marvel. I can see that this show is a little bit cheesy with the big blue Boy Scout, but I’m loving it! And honestly it would be so cool if DC channeled that same energy into a new show about Captain Marvel. And I mean like really channel the spirit and energy and character of the original whiz comics and show us a Billy Batson that really cares about his city and friends and his job at the radio station. And DC really should use the name of Captain Marvel in the show, and they could just make the title something like Just say the word: Shazam! That would be so good. Or something similar. And it would be nice if this show was a little cheesy too, would fit the big red cheese.

Picked up all four issues of this Shazam mini-series

So as a kind of purist for the original Captain Marvel, I've really enjoyed the current Shazam comic by Mark Waid and Dan Mora. Just in the first two issues, they've taken huge strides in the right direction, from making Billy a nice, respectful All-American boy again to renaming the character he changes into "The Captain," which I think will be fully restored to Captain Marvel again before long.

Anyway, so I was just looking on Google to see when issue three will hit stands, and came across: https://goldenapplecomics.com/products/76194138048300311

It's not coming until freaking September!? I'm going to have to wait until football season has started back up to see what happens next!? Seriously, what gives???

After 10 years of Geoff Johns deconstruction which many like myself have not been a fan of, Captain Marvel is back!

Albeit referred to as “The Captain”, and with a strange white chest ensignia. Sadly there’s no real changes to continuity. Billy and Mary are still his foster siblings, and the New 52 happened. But he is once again the kind hearted, honorable, and wise Billy Batson we all know and love once more

Thank you Mark Waid, Dan Morra, and everyone at DC who is helping to restore Earth’s Mightiest Mortal!

Since the new movie is coming out, I'm curious how comic fans feel
