  Possession Comics (@PossessionComic) reported 1 minute ago

  @RandyS0725 @fentyheffa Roy Thomas was going to tie him into the Shazam continuity. I wonder if there are rights issues? Although I know he's appeared in some animated stuff since then.

  @uniquemoviemom This is more female supremacy nonsense. Shazam is also magic. He should have been able to resist. Also, the lightning should have taken her out or he could have called down the lighting again to turn back as she was thrown away by the impact.

  @TheComicSource Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, following the trajectory of failure around the aged up version of the character and the publication of perhaps the worst treatment of the property with the deceptive de-age in Shazam issue 20, this Superman Unlimited arc WOULD be a hoax if the young version of Jon does not remain in current continuity. Too often, editors forget that fans are people also- customers marking tally over each and every deficient story arc, and glaring lack of competence marring canon over time. DC certainly paid no attention to sales numbers, fan feedback, Go-Fund-Me campaigns… watching the publisher fall on their face with the Jon Kent character- heck, with core Kryptonian titles, has not been “fun.”

  @RaminNasibov @TheBookofG1nk0 I downloaded Merlin but it will absolutely not work unless you give location permissions which is not cool. I mean it listens through mic AND tracks location. Privacy issue. Someone needs to invent a competitor that makes it optional! Bird Shazam on demand w/ manual loc data

  Is Absolute Green ꗞ Lantern #14 out? (@AbsGLHypeGuy) reported 13 minutes ago

  @Gray_m0nst3rous Agree with the last part, I would have really preferred if King Shazam was really just magic and not related to Brainiac. As for the 14 first issues... Well, I disagree, I'd say that it proves that Superman can save Earth, while he didn't believe he could because of Krypton.

  @BackintheBronze Sent cash in for Shazam! then it was cancelled. For the two remaining issues, they sent a Super Friends and a Superman. I also got one of the many subs won in the Superman Trivia Contest. I chose Action so I would get the giant sized #500.

  @YRANACKCALB The huge problem is Shazam is the personality of the both actors. They are really different

  @MILFMlLK source wall yes. I forgor abt that ngl (it happens after the green cube) but the monsterlands... uncertain. death metal almost entirely decanonizes his shazam issues bc it acts as if he just got out of the source wall but honestly who freakin knows

  Count Napier 2: La secuela (@JHQ409259) reported 21 minutes ago

  @TheBatspecter It really was the DCEU itself, Lego DC was at its best at that time (add to that the success of Lego Batman Movie)Lego DC really went down the drain when the movies didn't seem to have direction (you know, Shazam, Joker, TSS, SnyderCut) The only one that had a set was WW84.

  almost 2 years ago, someone walking by was trying to shazam beat up chanels as i was listening to it first time w my windows down at a red light

  @CStarkov43557 @MarlonManc99134 @SomaKazima2 You bringing up inconsistency in comics which most characters have Same way Superman can be life an entire galaxy in one issue but in the next be beaten by someone like Batman or Shazam

  Shazam Founder @Inghelbrecht says Shazam should never have existed. To build the company in 2000, the team had to digitize one of the world’s largest music libraries before streaming existed. They had to invent music recognition technology from scratch and physically build the computing infrastructure needed to run it before companies like Google Cloud and AWS were around. They also had to convince mobile carriers to support a product category nobody had ever seen before. Inghelbrecht says even if each of those problems only had a 10% chance of working, the odds of Shazam surviving were practically zero.

  @futurexhope This is actually true, yeah. The term AI is hard to define in itself and it can include tools like even Microsoft Word or Shazam if not delimited enough, but generative AI is a very specific part of it that is the core of the whole issue with AI these past years. Not that hard

  @FetchTheGhost WW, Aquaman even Shazam 1 is pretty peak so of my favorites and I love The Flash film it had the right idea but terrible execution with things

• 
  Joe Mish (@JoeMish3) reported 27 minutes ago

  That's why SS made 746m without China right afterwards and then WW made 823 million right afterwards right? And even after the trainwreck the execs made Aquaman made a billion,but BvS derailed the franchise right? The problems start with Shazam You disingenuous piece of ****

  @p3aced3fender2 @doubtfully_xD you cant shazam the song, not because its in arabic, but probably because its taken down from youtube and spotify.

  Flerken (@NotFlerken) reported 31 minutes ago

  @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.

  MER∆KI (@MerakiDelta) reported 36 minutes ago

  @DierkingJakob @Blaaaair96 @BlackMajikMan90 It may not have met expectations but it was still a financial success. It clearly also didn't damaged DC's reputation since SS, WW, Aquaman, and Shazam all were box office hits. You cant keep blaming BvS for the problems DC had long after it came out.

  littledaisy 🌼 (@hanniedontcare) reported 40 minutes ago

  I was just thinking about this now.. it was so unfair. we got less time to prepare for nonexistent, super poorly organized Back To Life promotion. practically zero promotion outside twitter, broken links, the song was stolen across streaming platforms, shazam got hijacked, MV + release announce last minutes and BTL hit streaming a month later. we were on our own while other fbs got weeks to prep. we could've done so much more with an early heads up. we could've easily debuted with over 1M streams if jyp wasnt so ****** 😭😭😭

  Shazam had no answer for blade 2. Close to infallible normally, 3 wrong answers tonight!! Just put on pulp fiction and it had no problem picking up tracks from that.

  @OtunbaSebotimo It’s a great movie. The only problem is teenage Billy Batson is played as a serious, street-smart kid, but when he transforms into Shazam, he completely changes into an over-the-top, immature goofball. Doesn’t feels like they the same person

  Garfman (@GarfeldoAlfredo) reported 47 minutes ago

  @raingod09790030 Shazam was during the broken DCEU, not the DCU that has been solid. Go cry about it.

  THE CAPTAIN ⚡️ (@Lightingclap) reported 51 minutes ago

  @UpbvatReporter “A-an interview?” Shazam stammered nervously as he looked down at the reporter. He laughed, rubbing the back of his neck. “With me? Are you sure? There’s plenty of other heroes around.”

  @ORTHODOXLAD1 @SynthPotato If you can find a long enough clip of it without too much talking try Shazam, or a service like that.

  distrokid stays robbing me 99¢ per track. In the past I only added the shazam discovery to my tracks and ever since apple music bought shazam and make it essentially free to have your songs on shazam if they’re on apple music so to keep that charge valid they have it register with nielsen sounds can and all that ****, which is now called Luminate long story short they by it no right to collect money for a service they don’t provide anymore. i didn’t ask to have my **** on neilson soundscan/luminate, i added the discovery for shazam when that was the only service offered in the discovery pack. @DistroKid you should automatically stop charging for any 99¢/track discovery pack bought before apple bought shazam. or at the very least notify people that shazam is free but they can either continue the discovery w neilson or opt tracks out of that discovery system. ESPECIALLY when i never gave you the rights to have my data on soundscan for those old songs when soundscan registration wasn’t in the discovery pack. you have no right at all that’s like if you had a meal prep delivery company deciding to start sending you **** that’s NOT good and keeping your subscription alive in bad faith because it’s just the same company deluging SOME service
