one of my favorite characters in the new 52 still doesn't have a ongoing series. is there a specific reason behind this? as there been any hints about a series happening?

probably cause no writers have pitched any good ideas.

Hopefully it's because they are waiting for the character to be fixed.

@magicman411: he had his mini and that came out in a trade i think. maybe it didnt sell well

Maybe Shazam just isn't as interesting as a character as people make him out to be?

@w0nd: That was my favorite part of the justice league issues. I figure with the announcement of him getting his own movie, we should at least know that a series is coming soon.

There will be, with the movie announcement. Same without Cyborg.

Maybe a cyborg et shazam story may comeout soon considering they are trying to make them BFF, and i would like them not to push his siblings aside i would love to see more of them

Soon... According to Geoff johns

I really hope billy and cyborg do get a series

after convergence or crisis 2015 me thinks

@transformers1024: really ? Billy Batson among the coolest character in comics. I mean he is a kid that only just said a word and then become a godlike superpower being. And...he has a tiger as sidekick. I mean you cannot say it is not cool

Because DC is ran by idiots.

I'm kidding. The guys running the asylum are okay. Though hopefully soon. I really want to see what they are doing with Mr. Mind. They left me waiting for so long.

The more important question is when are they going to realize that they so desperately need books for the Martian Manhunter, Doom Patrol, Black Canary, and the Atom?

@crazyscarecrow:

Maybe they know they'll screw them up with poor creative teams and crap editorial mandates? I'd rather have no title than a bad title.

Damn do I agree . I don't care how popular Shazam turns out to be in sales. But I've been waiting for them to hint back with Shazam & Cyborg stuff for awhile and still nothing to show for it . Theres a list of guys that are popular enough & great characters that they have hanging on back burner . (i.e), (Shazam,Cyborg,Hawkman) just to name a few . I know they obviously feel they don't have writers that have a good idea/storyline for these characters & Obviously they havent liked sales with these characters but come on DC lets give the REAL fans what they want , get some of these guys off the inactive list

@sog7dc: Good point. Especially since they took away all history these characters had. It would be terrible if they started really building these characters with a terrible creative team.

I seem to remember Geoff Johns hinting that both Shazam and Cyborg will be getting their own series soon in his Reddit AMA a few months back. Obviously he didn't say it explicitly but the hints were definitely intentional.

I wouldn't be surprised to see a Shazam ongoing soon, what with the movie and all. I'd put my money on it happening around the time they announce the actor to play Shazam in the movie, to build more hype for it. If we have no Shazam ongoing by summer 2015 I will be amazed.

You bite your tongue!! Captain Marvel can be awesome depending on the writer. Superman wouldn't be anymore interesting if his character represented a storyline focused on his background.
