Alright, i like Captain Marvel alot....and i think he's totally underrated on these forums. People say he's not as strong nor as fast as Superman and Wonder Woman.....but he has proven many times to be at least as strong and fast as Superman himself....every time they fight when they lock arms neither one of them wins....so i'd say their equal....

Unfortunately, i dont read alotta DC, but from what i have read, CM is a badass.....So i just made this thread for people to post scans of some feats of his...

I can only really think of 3 feats since i dont read DC, so can someone post the scans of:

-His fight against Supes from Kingdome Come.
-His fight against Supes from Superman/Batman #4
-His fight against Eclipso-Supes from Superman #216

Also post as many scans as u can think of not just wut i have posted here.....Thanx.

Superman possessed by Eclipso throws the ship trying to kill civilians. Billy flies and caches it.

You ass! I was preparing a huge Shazam respect thread. sad

Blair Wind
then post it here...and say all credit goes to you...just like with the alpha Flight one....mungi is the one with all the posts not the creator...

I'll post it all when it's ready. Mine is more about the entire Shazam family, including Black Adam so it's a bit different.

CM needs no respect thread. He is awesome. Way better than Superman....too bad Marvel didn't buy him when they had the chance.

Captain Marvel looks like a circus performer in my opinion. This doesn't mean that I'm here to fight like the Namor one-misunderstood. It's just my way to contribute. We shoud allow -and+ opinions and find out the truth. And even if the truth is the negative the character still possesses the right to exist and continue. Perhaps we all can come to a deal about improving the character in any way possible. This is an important part of my comment, if I am giving Mr. Marvel a chance why not you give me one in case you don't agree. Why I don't like this guy like superman? Because he is Superman with a different costume more like a version. I like to be honest and kind with you. I will appreciate any help possible. This is a kid here.

Their superheros. They all look like that.


And I happen to like Cap Marvel red and white costume.



He's Superman with a different costume?

Who was the first to fly under his own power?
who was the first to be completely invulnerable?
Who had Captain Marvel jr and Mary marvel before their was a supergirl and superboy.

I will mention Spider-Man and how his costume is like that. First he has an aunt and can't afford being discovered (mask) he has the spider and the web representing the way of his powers. Red&Blue worked perfect for Superman as well for him and these colors are from nature. Marvel has a lightning plus a magician cape, boots, and a fabric belt-the reason for me to mention circus. Well, thanks for listening. Circus is not an insult and all those performers would like to be him.

Arabian Knight
So, you just hate the fabric? Can you put a lisp in the word "cracker"? I bet you can. Go ahead, try.

Jose123
how can you hate this

http://www.sequart.com/shazam/poster.JPG


He looks FABULOUS!!!!

redcaped
Find the weak points? Of course I have lots of weak points just like you or any other being on this planet. I am not here to judge or hate. I found a simple similarity with the fabric belt and the circus. If I may, languages are the same, they have a tone, a timing, and a purpose and if you are smart enough you may understand all of them, I mean understand not translate. I bet you can understand me, no need to upset yourself, not my intention. Am I wrong?

I think we owe Alex Ross for bringing the Godly feeling out of his version of Captain Marvel - showing how magnificent he can look. I've had a liking for him since my childhood, watching the live-action show on Saturday mornings. He was the best-selling comic of the 1940's - all while being sued by Superman's owner's - because he had a wish fulfillment for children; Billy Batson was a boy who could change at will into a super-powered grownup.
His costume is still perfect of it's period and unique - Persian in inspiration, like a sorceror; the single-shoulder cape is inspired by pre-WWI nobility, and a sash instead of drawers/swim trunks. They could muss his hair a little; he was modeled after Fred MacMurray.
Yes, too bad Marvel didn't buy him decades ago - but what would it cost now? I think I would take him over some other Marvel hero, starts with an 'S', who...oh. Sentry. shifty

Pfft. Real men need no ridicolous magic to help them fly! Namor uses his own flesh and bones to fly! Cut vocal cords from Billy Batson and he can fly as much as I can.

Namor will beat the ass of that pansy 16-year old kid back to Shazam! rock

Namor has pretty much no chance against CM. He can beat Billy Batson though. eek!

Meh...he could hang around with CM for a minute or so. He's after all gone toe to toe with Thor and Hulk..

But even I could beat Billy Batson.

DC Power houses are way stronger than Marvel power houses like hulk or Thor.

I'd say he'd last a minute before someone like Black Adam smacks him away.





Anyone notice how DC is trying to copy Namors looks and personality into Black Adams.

True. yes

Come on, you already got Aquaman, why do you want copy him off to another character!?

There's nothing that can't be undone. Shazam could come back, Billy can return and be the new Shazam, and pass on the Marvel mantle to someone else - we'll see what DC has in mind.
He has stalemated Superman in feats of strength, so he is argubly stronger than Wonder Woman, yes.

I don't have a scanner. But Billy currently has Shazam's power and goes by Marvel Billy says that he is everything the Captain Marvel was and everything Shazam was infused with. CM jr. or Freddy he and Mary has lost all their powers and Freddy is going through trials to recover his back one by one and he will be the New Captain Marvel but will be called Shazam. This was said in Trials of Shazam issue 2.

Captain Marvel is one of my Favorite Characters. Big up to Alex Ross for doing him justice in Kingdome Come and Justice. I love the speed feat in Justice when Superman asked Captain Marvel to catch Flash implying that he couldn't but Captain Marvel can and Capt did just that. Wish I had a scanner to show this if anyone has this please do.

Kingdome Come isn't canon Just like Justice isn't. So Capt never died really so to answer you question he is Alive. The bomb killed Billy not Captain Marvel. He said Shazam 3 times while he was Captain Marvel so it was like billy, Captain Marvel, and back to Billy guess he didn't really think it through.

ankur29 WW isn't slow without her plane she has the speed of Hermes the god of speed IIRC and I think she is light speed since she entered the speedforce on her own power ( didn't read the book but saw scans). But like you I don't think she is as fast or strong as CM or Supes. Also like you said every thing that happened in Justice is in CM's power set to do. cool

He was the best-selling comic of the 1940's - all while being sued by Superman's owner's - because he had a wish fulfillment for children; Billy Batson was a boy who could change at will into a super-powered grownup.
His costume is still perfect of it's period and unique - Persian in inspiration, like a sorceror; the single-shoulder cape is inspired by pre-WWI nobility, and a sash instead of drawers/swim trunks. They could muss his hair a little; he was modeled after Fred MacMurray.
Yes, too bad Marvel didn't buy him decades ago - but what would it cost now? I think I would take him over some other Marvel hero, starts with an 'S', who...oh. Sentry. shifty

Yep i couldnt agree with you more. My first introduction to cap was the early 70's live action show "SHAZAM!"

Unfortunatly in the world of DC comics, he is cursed with .....horrible writing. then alex ross came by and has elevated the Hero we know as captian marvel to superman levels again.


I have always like supes,thor but my favorite is and always will be cap, just tired of the bad writing he gets. The comics minus alex ross's description of him tend to be inconsistent of what he is capeable of doing.

Captian marvel has always been stronger then WW. Captian marvel has far exceede the strength of hercules along time ago. Its all in the writing, there is no facts in comics its just comics. even though cap is suposed to have the strength of hercules, he has demonstrated many times to have exceeded that.

WW is on more of Martian manhunter's level of strength where cap and black adam are between WW and supes in strenght. Think any of them are capable of under the correct circumstances beating the other.

Yes it is. And that looks like the artwork of Dave Gibbons (WATCHMEN). So take it for what it is. It's possible Superman has faster reaction speed & reflexes, but I've always thought Captain Marvel could match him in flying speed.

Also, Billy is looking very cool in the white robes these days. thumb up

Here's a pretty good durability showing from Captain Marvel. After Ultra-Humanite possesses the Thunderbolt, a massive maelstrom of 5-D energy begins to spiral out of control. Of all the assembled heroes, which included Power Girl, Superman, Wonder Woman, Black Adam, and others, Captain Marvel is the one who steps up to the plate to put an end to it all. The energy is described as being able to "reduce a lesser hero to cinders".

http://i578.photobucket.com/albums/ss225/OdinBorson/cm5dmagic2.jpg

And here's a much less impressive feat, but something a lot of people tend to forget anyway about Captain Marvel. Since his appearance as the Big Red Cheese comes from his deep rooted subconcious, it's not a problem at all to alter his appearance if he consciously focuses on it.

And here, Billy is actually able to magically conjure up deep space equipment to assist in his mission to the further reaches of the solar system.
