The following issues of Shazam! have shifted contents from their original solicitations. Originally the long-delayed Shazam! #12 from DC Comics looked like this:

SHAZAM! #12 (RES)
(W) Geoff Johns (A/CA) Dale Eaglesham
Revealing his devious plans, Mr. Mind attacks Billy Batson and the entire Shazam family! Pushed to the limit by a fierce battle against both Black Adam and the Monster Society, can Shazam turn the tide and save himself and his adopted family of friends and fellow heroes?

Now it looks like this, with added Batman, out on June 2nd.

Geoff Johns and Dale Eaglesham Finale on Shazam! Gets Shuffled.

SHAZAM #12 (RES)
(W) Jeff Loveness (A/CA) Brandon Peterson
Batman guest stars in a special team-up interlude issue! In pursuit of new villains to thwart, Shazam heads-where else?-to Gotham City, landing him face-to-creepy face with the Scarecrow! Can Batman help Billy overcome his greatest fears?

The contents of the original issue #12 have now shifted to issue #13 which used to read:

SHAZAM #13
(W) Geoff Johns (A/CA) Dale Eaglesham
He's baaaaaaack! The greatest kid superhero ever faces the worst teen supervillain as Billy Batson and the Shazam family confront Superboy Prime. Superboy Prime has the powers of Superman and none of his heroic morality-can even Shazam stop the most powerful threat he and his family have ever encountered?

But now reads

SHAZAM #13
(W) Geoff Johns (A/CA) Dale Eaglesham

Revealing his devious plans, Mr. Mind attacks Billy Batson and the entire Shazam family! Pushed to the limit by a fierce battle against both Black Adam and the Monster Society, can Shazam turn the tide and save himself and his adopted family of friends and fellow heroes?

Then Shazam! #14, which previously was a second Jeff Loveness and Brandon Peterson looking like this

SHAZAM #14
(W) Jeff Loveness (A/CA) Brandon Peterson
After a night battling robots across the globe, Billy Batson finds out not everyone loves superheroes when one of his teachers unleashes a lecture on the ethics of unchecked power and privilege. It'll take more than just the wisdom of Solomon for the teen hero to figure this one out.

It is now double-sized for Geoff Johns and Dale Eaglesham's finale and incorporates what would have bee n in Shazam! #13. But now has a new overall description.

So what was once Shazam! #14 is now Shazam! #15, written by Jeff Loveness and illustrated by Brandon Peterson, featuring contents originally solicited as Shazam! #14. The issue will be solicited for release in September.
