Superman: Dawn of JusticeandSuicide Squad, Justice Leaguehad failed to create a superhero crossover event on the level of what Marvel Studios had accomplished withThe Avengers. The films were largely criticized for being too dreary, dark, and depressing. However,Shazam!Took a completely different approach to the material by showing what it was like for a child like Billy Batson (Asher Angel) to transform into a fully grown superhero (Zachary Levi)....
