    Besides the black adam 6 issue or maybe it was 12 issue comic of bolt. I do not know this *****, I just like a concept of a black guy as Shazam-esque character

    @maxvayshia Black Adam and Thor will seriously wear him down. Especially Black Adam because he's not even different from Shazam, and Shazam is just as strong as Supes. Hancock too tbh. That n!gga built different fr. The rest are insects.

    @R0ssb1e @Bad_____bunny99 There's nothing close about the fight. Thragg aren't even as strong or as fast as Shazam, Thragg aren't seen anything or face anything like Shazam before but Shazam has taken down people far powerful than Thragg like I said earlier they're not on the same level.

    @roger_stev82377 Shazam would have no issues even if they all came at him at once.

  • ComicBookRehab
    Joseph Adorno (@ComicBookRehab) reported

    @ForLangley @WizardsComics And the debacle itself all came down to an appalling amount of bad communication/misinformation/lack of representation, whether intended or unintended, since Mick Anglo was still alive, although once the character Marvelman, it was like, "Oh...British Captain Marvel/Shazam.."

    @AdamService @ExtremeBlitz__ ayo the one with the one piece mafia shadows & "worst generations" voiceover? can't grab audio from x vids directly to shazam it rn, but if u got a clip/link/desc of the beat i'll track the exact track down quick. drop it!

    @ParkerAlex19286 @sakpo0007_ Sorry, I can't pull audio from the video to ID the background song—it's a common issue with these montage clips. They often use generic dramatic/trending instrumentals for effect. If it's from TikTok/Reels, try Shazam on the original!

    God these are awful. I truly wish DC figures could fall into Hasbro‘s hands. McFarlane isn’t even trying at this point. I have been waiting for a black Canary and she looks terrible. Vigilante is OK in that new Shazam 🤮🤮

    @DragonMaster478 @ExigaNail @DEB10042 It’s just how things have been for decades. He was called Captain Marvel all the way through the 2000s. In New 52, DC decided they wanted to get rid of the complicated rights issue by just naming him Shazam instead. Which led to a lot of conflict with fans.

    I know damn sure my Shazam is broken… cos why are you not picking these songs 😭😭

    @archrxz @CQuill97 1. The first Shazam was very successful on a low budget that is why it got a sequel ! 2. Zero Batman movies wasn’t the plan it’s just that Affleck just couldn’t do it due to his personal issues ! 3. Pattinson and Reeves don’t want it and Gunn respects that choice

    @CambsCops Why hasn't Shazam Choudhary been arrested for this Anti-Semitic advert? Why aren't the Police nationwide investigating @TheGreenParty for Anti-Semitism? It's time this party was SHUT DOWN!😡

    @dfwtopski Stop that joke I once used shazam to find a song that got taken down I could not listen to it but it gave me the artiste name

  • GlamRockMarc
    Born To Boogie - Marc Bolan Archive (@GlamRockMarc) reported

    📆 April 19, 2002, “Jeepster” by T. Rex became the first song successfully identified by Shazam. This happened during a pre-launch test of the service, which at the time required users to call a phone number and receive the song title via text message. The company, now owned by Apple, has since developed technology capable of identifying billions of songs.

    @the_xueyutanhua It was blatant and ultimately futile ego-stroking because Shazam was canceled one issue later. Most Kid Jon fans had disengaged by that point and I doubt many even looked at the issue.

  • CJ_Feher
    Carl Feher (@CJ_Feher) reported

    @DeathMetalV Maybe because too many of a certain kind of person were raised on reading science fiction where any inconvenient plot problem can be solved by simply making something up that's never existed before. Shazam! Problem solved!

    @RAISRAEL2 Remeber the song app named shazam? Or waa it a site or something? I never used it. So maybe it was a copywrite issue and now hes contractually forbidden from talking about it. Or those kids went missing to the island....

    @GrahamGeekEire @MikeKalinowski @Filipe_sca I like the DCU I haven’t even watched any Snyder versus movies besides Shazam James is starting to disappoint though because the problem is, he’s a fan living out his fan power fantasy through his work and just does what he wants to do also this being made by a war criminal

    I think @Shazam is broken. I use it to identify a song and it said DJ Smooth Panda. Is this real life?

    @yngblkeconomist Lana most definitely was going hard for Chris Watts. She started a whole non-profit (that got shut down) called fight for a family, she made a whole character of Shannan called Shazam.

    @RewindingD @karol_rosalin I can't access the audio in that clip to Shazam it. If you caught any lyrics or can describe the beat/style, I'll hunt it down! 🎶

    @BlakkMonkey @Zap_TFS @roger_stev82377 Better to shut it down than go back and forth so yep. AND on top of that, you inserted Hal in a conversation he doesn’t even compete in. Superman is the fastest non speedster character in DC and Shazam is behind him.. so where did you get Hal from? U saying he’s faster than Kent?

    Cultured.souls (@CulturedSouls) reported

    @empatheticcain It wasn’t a rights issue. DC could always call Billy Captain marvel and even did so several times in alternate universes when his name was “Shazam” They just couldn’t call his comics “Captain marvel” and Geoff Johns decided to change the name in the New 52.
