I love that he's in the game. He's a unique character that DC underutilizes. If I get this game I will use him as my fighter the most. He is NOT the same as Superman.

They have some of the same superabilities, but how many other super heroes also have those same abilities?

Differences:

1. Superman is an alien. Billy Batson is human.
2. Superman is vulnerable to kryptonite, mental attacks and magic. Captain Marvel is invulnerable to magic and mental attacks.
3. Captain Marvel does not have x-ray vision, freeze breath, or heat vision.
4. Superman doesn't use magic. Captain Marvel uses a kick a** lightning bolt (that even knocks the s**t out of Superman)
5. Billy Batson has to use the magic word SHAZAM! to get his powers.

Similarities:

1. super strength
2. near invulnerability
3. super speed
4. flight
5. stamina

How many other super heroes share super strength, speed, etc? Lots. Wonder Woman has all of those. Is she the same as Superman? No, because she's a female. The only reason Captain Marvel is compared to Supes is because he's a guy too. Oh, and they both have capes....lol. I lover the big red cheese. Do a little research on a character before you just bash him and go read some of the comics. My favorite ones for Captain Marvel are "Justice" and "Kingdom Come".

Technically, you gave him all the information about Captain Marvel, so he kinda knows jack about him.

And yeah, Captain Marvel does suck. No offense or anything.

he's sort of a love/hate addition. I'm not really a fan of him, but I have a couple friends who were excited he's in the game. Either way it will be fun to beat on him.

It's a damn funny movie. But Captain Marvel is just some dorky hero who says "Shazam!" All the time... Shazam, seriously? Shazam?

And I know why he says it, don't go all up in my face about CM, I read a lot of comics to know what I'm talking about.

I read "Kingdom Come" and he was pretty cool in that but, honestly I think the slot could've been filled by someone else cooler.

Ed Boon takes all this time to explain to us that Superman will be vonurable to magic, so we will be able to defeat him in this game...


And now he puts in Captain Marvel?

My guess is Boon doesn't know all the specifics about the DC characters. If Superman is "weakened" for the game, Captain Marvel is the most powerful fighter until Wonder Woman is added.

Wow... Some people in this thread, made it fail fast. Just from what you gathered does not mean you know anything about Captain Marvel. He's better then most think.

I figure that the merging of the DC Universe and the MK Universe could either weaken Shazam or weaken Billy's connection to Shazam and therefore weaken Captain Marvel.

Captain Marvel is fucking stupid IMO. He's just another company's hero that DC bought.

And DC practically is the Rocky Fucking Picture Show, they don't wear their underwear right so what's the fucking difference between that and wearing assorted lingerie? Other than lingerie is a bit creepier.

Which is why I feel pretty confident saying that Cap will be the boss or maybe the sub-boss for the MK scenario. Considering the circumstances of this particular conflict,he should have a huge advantage over both his fellow DC characters and the MK invaders.

Dc's owned the big red cheese for more than sixty years now, everything he is today, DC made him.

Also, do you want to know why so many DC heroes have those outside underwear things?

Think of the fact that most of them are wearing skin tight uniforms.

Now think what would be visible if there wasn't anything covering that area.

Either reader's would have a face full of Superbulge or our heroes ould be suffering from serious cases of Ken Doll Syndrome.

This is the actual reason they have those, so be thankful, the alternatives are horrid.

Still, the facts remain. They did his story how it is now but they didn't actually make the character.


I didn't say I'd prefer the alternative, and you can still see the bulge, the damage to my brain has been done forever.

Captain Marvel was, originally, pretty much a Superman clone created for young kids who dreamed they could become Superman somehow. Sure, he's changed and evolved over the years, and was even once more popular than Superman was, but he's lost his luster. And he really doesn't fit into this game. Boon keeps saying, over and over (and over and over) that Superman works now because of the magic stuff, but Captain Marvel should be able to destroy anybody in this game since he lacks this weakness and has Superman's strength, speed, stamina, and other abilities.

He's not a bad character, but for this game, I'd have prefered somebody more original. Like Bane, or Azrael, or Martian Manhunter, or Cyborg, or Starfire, or Deathstroke, or ANYBODY else.... heck, I'd take Poison Ivy over the Superman clone.

You have no idea the horrors of Superman not wearing his Red outerunderwear.

http://image.comicvine.com/uploads/item/6000/5692/118710-ultraman_150.jpg

^That is Earth-3 Evil Superman by the name of Ultraman. He is the full terror of Superman not wearing those things.

1. An atrocious looking solid field of blue costume, blech.

2. And, yeah, Ultrabulge.

Don't complain about heroes wearing their underwear on the outside unless you want them all to look like... that.

If you think I'm gonna click it now that you said what it was you're smoking crack XD still, ultra bulge will always be a part of the DC universe. One of many many reasons I can't stand it.

All his special moves should not have him say "Shazam!" all the time... I'm really starting to get into it with that damn word.

It's a lame word, what can I say?
