I've been meaning to read some of Billy Batson (CM) and get into the character but don't know where to start so I was wondering if anyone could help me in that regard and perhaps some other CM stories as well?

I'd recommend Shazam! by Geoff Johns, Superman/Shazam!: First Thunder, and Shazam!: The Power of Hope.

@the_tree: so I guess I should with geoff johns? Or what... want to know if their is a specific story that would pull me into liking the character right away or if I could start anywhere, an example is when I got into Captain America people said to read winter solider first then move on from there, was wondering if there was a story that would work the same way for CM?

@deathgorath444: The character essentially underwent a full reboot with the New 52, so Johns' origin story is the only one that really matters. But the other books I recommended are just great CM stories.

Now why would anyone read Kingdom Come for Captain Marvel? It's not much of a Cap story.

@billy_batson: Didn't his TPB just come out?

Yeah, it came out last week. The hardcover came out a year ago.

Yeah for some reason I always thought that was more of a Superman story?
