james_desantis 's review for:
Shazam and the Seven Magic Lands
by Geoff Johns
Shazam returns with writer Geoff Johns to go along with the movie being a hit and...it's okay.
This very much feels like a script for Shazam 2. Got characters who show up in the first movie, Billy dealing with his father returning, the magic lands being run by a boy who can't seem to grow up, and Black Adam and Superboy thrown in just because.
This wasn't bad. Some of the art is amazing, the humor sometimes works really well, Billy's growth here is solid, and most of the family moments with Mary and the rest work. But the villains seemed forced, the Boy King is a lame villain, Black Adam is a tool, and then we finally get that crazy fucker Superboy back but he's kind of defeated so easy.
So yeah a okay story collection all together. Drags on at points and not amazing but decent enough read. A 3 out of 5.
