Captain Marvel

William "Billy" Batson, also known as Captain Marvel, is a superpowerful crime-fighter in Fawcett City, who is also an honored member of the Justice League International.

History
William "Billy" Batson, was born to C.C Batson and Marilyn Batson, together with sister Mary Batson, whom later would be known as Mary Marvel. C.C and Marilyn, were murdered on a archeologic expedition, and Mary was kidnapped. Batson, was taken in by his uncle Ebeneezer Batson, who in a short while later threw Billy out, and stole his trust fund. Thus it was the beginning of a sorrowful existence in Fawcett City.

The Emergence
Batson took a job as a paperboy, often sleeping in subway terminals. One night, Batson saw a mysterious stranger (Who later was revealed to be his dad), who asked him to follow him deep into the subway tunnels, finding a marvelous train, decorated with strange runes and hireoglyphics. Batson and the stranger, went deep into the bowels of the earth, only to stop in a looming cavern, filled with grotesque figures; The Seven Deadly Enemies of Man: Envy, Lust, Greed, Pride, Wrath, Sloth and Gluttony, along with the anicent champion of man and wizard Shazam. Withered with age, Shazam and his throne sat beneath a massive rock. Shazam converted his powers into Billy, transforming him into Captain Marvel! The World's Mightiest Mortal! Batson continued with the crimefighting in Fawcett City.

The Darkseid Crisis/Legends
Soon the malicous Darkseid, decided to turn the public people against the superheroes, by making his servant; Glorious Godfrey into G.Gordon Godfrey, public speaker who used his "magic voice", to make the people turn on they heroes, and trying to boycott superheroism. The attempt was successful and the President at the time (Ronald Reagan), introduced a new law against superheroes, judging them as outlaws and gave the police the rights to interfere and intervene at all tim during public appereaces of superheroic deeds. The sucess, however, was short-lived as the children intervened and pleaded wto their parents and other adults. The kids continued, until Gordon struck a girl with a slap, that forced people out of their trances in shock. Gordon was now hated, and the Legends decided to honor a former superhero-team (Justice League Detroit), and named themselves the Justice League, while Darkseid watched his humaliating defeat in Apokolips.
