==History==
Billy Batson was never the happiest kid on the block, being an orphan and going through lots of foster homes that he didn't take well to. His life would change after one fateful train ride took him to the lair of an ancient wizard named Mamaragan. The wizard was on death's door and sought a succeeding champion pure of heart, seeing "embers of goodness" in Billy and passing his powers onto him. Billy was promised great power should he utter the word "Shazam", which would transform him into an adult super-powered being bearing the wisdom of Solomon, strength of Hercules, endurance of Atlas, power of Zeus, courage of Achilles, and speed of Mercury. In spite of his youth and immaturity, Billy has gone on to be a respected hero and member of the Justice League.
