Shazam

Shazam

Billy Batson was a troubled foster child who had no one to call family after the death of his parents, other than a tiger named Tawny, until he was finally adopted by the Vasquez family. Although at first he was distant and harsh, he showed that he really cared by protecting his family from bullies. After being chased into the subway, he was summoned by the Wizard who deemed him unworthy, but after hearing how Billy did try to be a good person, he decided he had potential. He then gave Billy his power, granting him the Wisdom of Solomon, the Strength of Hercules, the Stamina of Atlas, the Power of Zeus, the Courage of Achilles, and the Speed of Mercury.
