The Thing and Captain Marvel, Jr.



Freddy Freeman has had an interesting few years. I am thankful that he dropped the silly CM3 moniker, that just seemed to be trying too hard to be hip. In the wake of the Trials of Shazam mini-series, he was poised to become the central member of the Marvel Family, but I don't think that will (or should) stick. I'm not sure what the status in now, however. The last time I checked, Billy and Mary were still powerless and Freddy nowhere to be found. Hopefully DC will get this property back on track and everyone back in the correct identities.

  2. Art Baltazar, Franco, & Mike Norton provided a great treatment of the Marvels in "Billy Batson & the Magic of Shazam" starting with #13. Sadly, DC cancelled the book with #21...

    I really enjoyed the first six issues of that series that Mike Kunkel did.
