Comic Book Preview – The New Champion of Shazam! #1

July 30, 2022 by Amie Cranswick

Mary Bromfield takes centre stage in her own DC Comics miniseries this week as The New Champion of Shazam!; check out the preview of the first issue here…

 

Mary Bromfield has always struggled to determine who she is outside her family…kinda hard to do when you’re all superheroes!

Now, after Billy Batson’s heroic sacrifice, the power of Shazam has vanished, and she’s been left powerless. Most heroes would be distraught, but not Mary. It’s finally time for a voyage of self-discovery as she prepares for her freshman year of college and a civilian life. But nothing is ever truly normal for this young hero, because she’s just been chosen as the new champion of Shazam! (At least according to a talking rabbit sent by her estranged brother Billy.) Will she embrace the power? Or will it die along with this world’s hope of survival against the mysterious magical forces waiting to take control?

Find out in Mary’s first solo miniseries, brought to you by up-and-coming comics writer Josie Campbell (Future State: Green Lantern) and fan-favorite Shazam artist Evan Doc Shaner (Strange Adventures, Convergence: Shazam!)!

The New Champion of Shazam! #1 goes on sale on August 2nd.
