Spoilers, Top Story

DC Comics Universe and Shazam #10 Spoilers and Review follows.

A Huge Betrayal Plus A Scarred Superboy-Prime Returns 3 Issues Early As…

…Shazam Mythology Expands and Monster Society Teased!

This was an early, but discarded cover for Shazam #10.

Dr. Sivana and Mister Mind are…

…on a magical quest that…

…leads them to the Dummy and…

…a dark castle that Sivan plans to imprison Billy Batson and the Shazam family.

We also learn of the Monsterlands…

…former the God Realm that the original avatars of Shazam put an end to by imprisoning key deities.

In that castle is also an imprisoned Superboy-Prime who has axe to grind with Billy Batson, but Mister Mind and Dr. Sivana want nothin to do with him!

The book ends with the Wizard…

…betraying the Shazam Family by…

…stealing Billy Batson’s dad’s Shazam powers?!

Interesting and, as a reminder, Superboy-Prime gave himself that scar.

Plus, here’s an old Who’s Who bio for Superboy-Prime.

Superboy-Prime features prominently on the cover to Shazam #13 set for release in May 2020 (full spoilers here).

The Pulse:

A compelling worlds-building issue with some action and intrigue peppered in. Solid art for each of the arcs. 8 out of 10.
