Anthony DesiatoHOST
I mean, very fast, real fast.
Anthony DesiatoHOST
You know, when we talk about the art specifically, I mean, there are these sequences that just go on for pages and pages that are just these wordless splashes, especially when we get to the Superman, Wonder Woman lovemaking scene.
Anthony DesiatoHOST
uh, portion of the proceedings.
Anthony DesiatoHOST
But, but so that's the thing, as far as this, this rougher approach and this more frenetic pace and, and all of that, I mean, it's, it's, it is quite striking, no pun intended, like how many of those, of those wordless sequences and splash pages there are in this.
Mike SangregorioGUEST
Yeah, it's, you know, these are very thick comic books.
Mike SangregorioGUEST
The paper stock is very, very thick.
Joseph GeorgeHOST

Joseph GeorgeHOST
He's 50.
Mike SangregorioGUEST
And it's happening in Metropolis and it's, you know, his friends are suffering.
Mike SangregorioGUEST
Captain Marvel passes away in the middle of all this, like, holding up basically Tower 2.
Mike SangregorioGUEST
Like, it's really dark.
Mike SangregorioGUEST
So...
Mike SangregorioGUEST
Yeah, and Jimmy Olsen, who had been Lex and the president's main adversary through the first third of the book.
Anthony DesiatoHOST
Yeah, absolutely.
Anthony DesiatoHOST
By the way, you mentioned Captain Marvel.
Anthony DesiatoHOST
this was a really intriguing bit where i think it's wonder woman right who's telling him to change back into billy
Michael Raven ShadowHOST
That's where comics would be, and it would be some issues of the original Captain Marvel.
Michael Raven ShadowHOST
Billy Batson is there.
Michael Raven ShadowHOST
Golden Age stuff framed on a mantle.
Michael Raven ShadowHOST
I look down.
AlexHOST
cosplayed
David ReddickGUEST
as Shazam, you know.
David ReddickGUEST
Star Wars, Mike, definitely.
David ReddickGUEST
Doctor Who, I feel like, is going to be Mike.
JeremiahPANELIST
So we're just going to mix up a few things.
JeremiahPANELIST
And Billy Batson becomes Mickey Moran and Captain Marvel becomes Marvel Man.
JeremiahPANELIST
And so Marvel Man runs for quite a while.
JeremiahPANELIST
I think it dies out in the 60s, runs from 1951 into like 62, 63.
AdamHOST
Plus, there's a big shocking reveal about Captain Marvel had actually been the Martian Manhunter all along.
AdamHOST
He had murdered Billy Batson and had shape-shifted and been impersonating the big cheese for years.
AdamHOST
So that's a wild story if they'd let him b- tell it, you know? [laughs]
Lee EberhartGUEST
So Alan Moore had a way of taking these characters that people loved and trying to ruin them for anybody to use ever again.
Lee EberhartGUEST
He would've ruined Superman.
Lee EberhartGUEST
He would've ruined Wonder Woman.
Lee EberhartGUEST
[laughs] Like, Martian Manhunter killing Billy Batson, what are we doing? Uh-
AdamHOST
Well, and that's what I just wonder, because like with Watchmen, would they have just said, "Yeah, it's a great story, but not with our characters"? So would he, he have just had to create a whole new universe of characters once again?
JamesHOST
family.
JamesHOST
This, to me, sounds like Shazam.
JamesHOST
No. That's pretty close,
MattHOST
though.
Fedor VeselovitchGUEST
That's right.
Matt AndersonHOST
It could be Kazam or Shazam.
Matt AndersonHOST
Or Shazam.
Matt AndersonHOST
That's right.
Matt AndersonHOST
That would be great if the world was not that like Sinbad and...
1 HR 27 MINS LATER
Fedor VeselovitchGUEST
It's like, uh, they, they do the thing and, uh, Futures End, where there was a character of Superman in the full face armor.
Matt AndersonHOST
Yeah.
Fedor VeselovitchGUEST
And because this is a few years in the future, and it appears that this was the Shazam
RobertHOST
I'm scared a little bit.
PaulHOST
[laughs] You're scared? Billy Batson.
RobertHOST
Billy Batson.
RobertHOST
Uh, that is Shazam, right?
PaulHOST
Shazam.
PaulHOST
He got it.
PaulHOST
That's crazy.
