I feel like we've done this thread.

[iodill8]

Somewhat, but yeah.

[pinksparklepuff]

Yeah, we've done a few threads like this. I suppose we can start dissecting the characters individually from Iodill's list, though.

I've actually never been particularly enthralled with the Juggernaut.

I've never really got that. Shazam is way better than "Captain Marvel," in my opinion. It's not like it's away from his origin story either. He adapted it from, I believe, the man that gave him his powers.

Also, I hate Captain Marvel/Shazam quite a bit. He's stupid, in my opinion. Along with Black Adam.

I never saw any reason to like or dislike Captain Marvel, but I have had a lot of good things about the comic in which he died so I guess that's one positive for him. Also Ms. Marvel is awesome. And then there's Shazam who's completely stupid.

Captain Marvel = 1/3 of Captain America

Bane and I bizarrely agree on a number of things. Shazam is a crap hero and has always been a cheesy Superman wanna-be and a craptastic vision of what the "kid who transforms into powerhouse" genre can be. Everything about him is awrful... including both of his names.

Shazam (or Captain Marvel) has always seemed like a bland character to me. Many think otherwise though, so I think if you're even the least bit interested, that you give it a look.

However, I know little about Marvel's Captain Marvel's (yes, that included Ms. Marvel), so I can't say if she/he is better.

I would've said that, but I didn't want anybody to bring up the "No, Superman's powers are Kryptonian and Captain Marvel's powers are from the Gods" debate again. I hate that debate.

Marvel's new Ms. Marvel, the Muslim girl, looks like she might be a really interesting character. I hope that they don't speed through her youth too quickly, the relationship between her and her very traditional Mother is really cool.

I'm not big into comics, so correct me if I'm wrong, but Captain Marvel/Shazam is the 10 year old kid who yells Shazam to turn into a god, correct? If so, he's a really stupid character.

Yes.

Malibu Comics did the same concept far better with a character called Prime.
