Breaking Bad For Billy Batson in Shazam #12 (Spoilers)

The splitting of Billy Batson and Captain Marvel's mind has been a notable Shazam plot twist of late in tomorrow's Shazam #12.

The splitting of Billy Batson and Captain Marvel's mind has been a notable Shazam plot twist of late, but not quite up there with the return of Billy Batson's mother in the last issue, throwing the current adoption plans of the Shazafam, in tomorrow's Shazam #12. Spoilers of course.

And it seems that the life events of his human self are impacting on his transformation. And the Captain, who is now basically Billy Batson's backup personality (should we call him Shaz-En-Arrh?) is noting that this may have dire effects. Seems that The Captain may be taking on a similar role as Zur-En-Arrh is over in Batman.

Taking him over, without consent, you can see where that might lead. Suddenly you have to download yourself into a robot body. Future solicits suggest Bily choosing never to be The Captain again. Especially as there are bigger emotional explosions on the imminent horizon.

Billy Batson has the brother of all problems now. The son that his biological mother brought up, and didn't give up. This is the kind of thing upon which therapists' careers are made.

Just in time for all of reality to break down, let alone their planned adoption. Shazam #12 by Josie Campbell and Emanuela Lupacchino, is published tomorrow by DC Comics.
