: In this series, the Marvel Family’s adventures
: will take place in an alternate Universe,
: separate from the mainstream DCU, and
: although I’ve set this series no definite
: time period, I’ve considered starting it in
: the current calendar year and proceeding
: from there. The first twelve issues of this
: series will cover Billy Batson’s first two
: years as Captain Marvel.
:
: These stories will introduce everyone to
: Billy, Captain Marvel, Shazam, Ebenezer
: Batson, Sterling Morris, Doctor Sivana, his
: children Beautia & Magnificus, Dudley
: Batson, Freddy Freeman, Whitey Murphy, John
: Malcolm and Tal Chotali and will team
: Captain Marvel with Police scientists Jim
: Barr and Susan Kent, alias Bullet and
: Caliber, and Alan Armstrong, a.k.a. Spy
: Smasher, and how Billy’s parents died will
: also be revealed. Many of the other
: villains, especially the Black Magician,
: Sabbac, Ibac and Flameshot, will also be
: introduced during this period.
:
: Year Two is when things begin to kick into
: high gear with the introductions of the
: Lieutenant Marvels, Captain Marvel Junior,
: Mary Marvel, Tawky Tawny, Uncle Marvel, Joan
: Jameson, Mister Mind, Aunt Minerva and Black
: Adam. This will also be about the time the
: title changes from “The World’s Mightiest
: Mortal!” to “The World’s Mightiest Mortals!”
:
: The end of year two and beginning of Year 3
: will culminate in a four-part story called
: “The Twelve Labors,” wherein Billy, Mary and
: Freddy lose the ability to become the
: Marvels due to the machinations of Ares, the
: Greek god of war, and Shazam’s former
: apprentice, a demi-god named Oggar, and
: bring back Black Adam. Year three will also
: introduce King Kull, Georgia and Junior
: Sivana, Chain Lightning, Mr. Atom and
: Freckles Marvel into the Fawcett Universe.
:
: From Year 4 on, the stories will further
: define the Marvel Family’s corner of the
: Fawcett Universe.
