DC Fans React to Zachary Levi's 'Shazam!' Costume
Today we got our first look at Zachary Levi's Shazam! costume - albeit via some paparazzi-style [...]
Are You Not Entertained?
I don’t know what people were expecting with the Shazam costume.
Injustice armor plating? Dark and gloomy colors?
It looks just like the comics, with the New 52 hood.

This fan doesn't see what there would even bee to object to: it's a Shazam costume that looks exactly like the comics. 'Nuff said.

My thoughts on the Shazam costume? Its a bad BTS picture, to form any opinion based on this picture makes no sense as you aren't getting a full look and its not even official.

Also some costumes don't translate well into live action, but fans are s anal about staying true to
A lot of fans are just happy to see Zachary Levi looking very Shazam-ish in a costume that honors the comic book source material.

It’s their opinion. I’m cool with the Shazam costume and I’m alright for people not liking it.

This fan keeps a rare level head in all the uproar over comic book movie costuming. It's refreshing to see.

You know that you can't have one of these BTS costume reveals without the inevitable fan who wants to tell everybody to just wait for something more official. Waiting too long is how we got in this situation, bro!

Some fans were disappointed by the costume - but are keeping in mind that this is a leak, not something official. Hopefully DC Films will release something soon, to quell fan concerns.

And please don't compare the Captain Marvel MCU suit and the Shazam suit. The former looked like a baggy F1 driver race suit with the colour all wrong. At least the Shazam costume does look faithful to one iteration of the character.

You can't have something nice for DC without also taking something away from Marvel, right? According to the fan above: no. You can't.

For some strange reason, we also need Jared Leto's Joker to weigh-in on all of this.
