Billy Batson has the heart of a hero. He just wants to make his community a better place. Clark Kent invited the young man to breakfast to interview him for The Daily Planet. They are rudely interrupted when the Black Adam bursts through the diner wall. Clark quickly transforms into Superman and tells Billy to run! Deep in the subway tunnels the young boy meets a wizard. The wizard tells Billy that he is destined to inherit his magical powers. All he needs to do to activate this gift is to say the word SHAZAM! Now with many gifts that match Superman's, Shazam enters the fight. Shazam brings magic to the battle which is something Superman can't do. Because the Black Adam premieres in theaters on October 21st, Silver Vox and Green Butterfly want to explore this character which is one of Shazam's biggest challenges. If you are ready, let's dive in!
