SHAZAM NEW 52 BY DC COLLECTIBLES

Shazam or Captain Marvel is a comic book character created by C. C. Beck and Bill Parker. On Febuary 1940, Shazam debuted on Whiz Comics No. 2 published by Fawcett Comics. After Fawcett Comics stopped publishing Captain Marvel in the 1950’s due to a law suit, DC comics started publishing him around 1970’s and in 1991 acquired the rights for the character.
After the New 52 event from DC comics, Shazam was featured as a bonus short story in the Justice League comic book.  In the New 52 storyline 15 year old Billy Batson was selected by a wizard to wield magical powers. And so the young boy Billy Batson became the mighty Shazam.
