Fury of the Gods is a 2023 American superhero film based on the DC character Shazam. Produced by New Line Cinema, DC Studios, and the Safran Company, and distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, it is the sequel to Shazam! (2019) and the 12th installment in the DC Extended Universe (DCEU).
The character is depicted as an ancient wizard who bestows powers upon the superhero Captain Marvel/Shazam through his own magical abilities. Throughout the DC Universe, he is portrayed as a long-standing defender against the forces of evil, spanning thousands of years.

Why can Black Adam say Shazam?
Black Adam and Shazam both get their powers from the same Council of Wizards, which explains why Teth-Adam says "Shazam!" to power up. Unlike Billy Batson, though, Black Adam draws his powers from the Egyptian gods: Shu, Heru, Amon, Zehuti, Aton, and Mehen.
Shazam acknowledges that he is unsure if he is stronger than Black Adam, despite his confidence in his mortal form. Both Shazam and Black Adam possess the same strengths endowed by the Wizard and have never been able to triumph over each other.
Owing to trademark conflicts over other characters named "Captain Marvel" owned by Marvel Comics, DC has branded and marketed the character using the trademark Shazam! since his 1972 reintroduction.
The marvel equivalent of Shazam is actually Miracleman/Marvelman he was an exact rip off of Captain marvel/Shazam he also has a word called “kimota” like how Captain marvel says “Shazam” as for Black Adam his marvel equivalent is Young Nastyman who is the arch enemy of Marvelman/miracleman.
Even though the law is on DC's side as far as being able to call him Captain Marvel, and even though DC still continues to use the Captain Marvel moniker here and there (like they've done as recently as 2021)… … they are still afraid of a lawsuit from Marvel Comics, so Mark Waid came up with a workaround for the name.
After spending a decade in prison, C.C. returns to Philadelphia to find Billy at the Vazquezes' foster home. When he is attacked by Black Adam and the Seven Deadly Sins, Billy shares his Shazam powers with his father, making him the prophesied seventh and final member of the Shazam Family.
If a Shazam 3 does happen, it is likely several years away as DC Studios currently has other projects in motion and only releases two live-action movies per year. A 2028 release date is possible unless there are changes to the production schedule.
While Batman and Superman ended up not appearing in Shazam! Fury of the Gods, the movie was not completely devoid of DC's iconic Trinity. Shazam 2 saw Wonder Woman cameo in a couple of scenes, with one of them being a delightful gag and the other a very important moment in the story.
James Wan's “Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom” is the 15th and final installment of the DC Extended Universe (DCEU), and it's safe to say that the franchise has ended in the same way that it started back in 2013: with a whimper.
The now-infamous mid-credits scene in 2022's Black Adam famously reintroduced Henry Cavill's Superman as a force capable of stopping the antihero, teeing up a showdown that will now never happen.
On their own, both these noble heroes are capable of beating incredible forces. But for all Shazam's power, he does not match Thor's experience in using the more arcane elements of his abilities.
The comics have shown the former Captain Marvel best Superman in a one-on-one fight while players of the Injustice video game watched Superman defeat Shazam by freezing his mouth shut --so he couldn't say the magic word-- and promptly lobotomizing him with his heat vision.
Meanwhile Billy, goes on to suggest other names for the Justice Society — including “the Avengers Society” — before the scene cuts. Normally, this is the part where Warner Bros. and DC would want all of us to speculate whether or not Waller will add Shazam to her roster of superheroes.
Seeing as he would have lost against Thanos without the upgrade of his new weapons, it's clear who the victor would be in a confrontation between the Mad Titan and Adam. A battle between the god-tier Thanos and Black Adam would be insane, but in the end, Thanos would walk away victorious.
black adam is far faster than hulk . He has fox quicksilver type speed scenes. considering he is bad version of superman ,he should have no trouble beating hulk. his speed and flight combined ,it is impossible for hulk to defeat black adam.
Ultimately, pure strength and speed will win the fight of pantheons, with the gods-given power of Black Adam simply being too much for Thor. Black Adam has speed on the level of a Kryptonian or even the DCU's version of The Flash, which is simply too much for Asgard's former prince.
