DC SHOWCASE: SUPERMAN/SHAZAM - THE RETURN OF BLACK ADAM

Make your stand against evil! Chosen the world's protector against the Seven Deadly Enemies of Man - pride, envy, greed, hatred, selfishness, laziness and injustice - young Billy Batson accepts his destiny as Captain Marvel. Battling alongside Superman against nefarious Black Adam, Billy soon discovers the challenge super heroes ultimately face: is it revenge or justice?

The all-star cast of Superman/Shazam! The Return of Black Adam is led by Jerry O'Connell (Crossing Jordan) as Captain Marvel, George Newbern reprising his Justice League role as Superman, Arnold Vosloo (The Mummy) as Black Adam and two-time Emmy Award winner James Garner (8 Simple Rules) as The Wizard.

Bruce Timm (Superman Doomsday) is executive producer and Joaquim Dos Santos (Justice League, Avatar: The Last Airbender) is director of the first series of DC Showcase titles. Michael Jelenic (Wonder Woman) wrote the 22-minute script.

This animated short is only available on the Superman/Showcase: The Return of Black Adam home video release, a special "DC Showcase" compilation release which includes all the animated shorts - released up to that point in 2010 - in one collection. The bonus video release includes extended cuts of the other DC Showcase shorts and bonus features. The animated short and home video release are reviewed in this section of the "DC Showcase" subsite.
