We all have a superhero inside us—it just takes a bit of magic to bring it out. In Billy Batson’s case, by shouting one word—SHAZAM!—this streetwise basically 15-year-old foster kid can turn into the adult Superhero Shazam, courtesy of an ancient wizard. LEARN MORE ABOUT BILLY’S JOURNEY IN THESE GREAT GRAPHIC NOVELS AND GET READY FOR THE HIGHLY ANTICIPATED FEATURE FILM STARRING ZACHARY LEVI, COMING APRIL 2019. SHAZAM!: ORIGINS Shazam’s incredible origin story is retold here in this new edition of Shazam!, just in time for the upcoming blockbuster movie starring Zachary Levi! In Shazam!: Origins, young orphan Billy Batson has bounced from foster home to foster home, but he’s far from the ideal child. Brash and rude, Billy is a troubled teen who just can’t seem to find a calling. But after a fateful night on a subway car, that all will change. Brought to the feet of a magical wizard at the Rock of Eternity, Billy is imbued with powers beyond any mortal man. By shouting the wizard’s name–Shazam!–the young teen is mystically transformed into a superhero powerhouse! Now given abilities that make him Earth’s Mightiest Mortal at the utterance of a simple phrase, will Billy make the right choices and do what it takes to become a hero? Or will he succumb to the poor choices of youth–and the villainous Black Adam?
