Powers and Abilities[]
Powers[]
- Divine Empowerment: After Billy was chosen by the wizard Shazam as his champion, he has been granted several meta-human attributes; when Billy is in avatar form; such as superhuman strength, speed, durability, leaping, agility, stamina, intelligence, electrogenesis and electrokinesis; making him an extremely powerful "meta-human".
- Superhuman Strength: Shazam possesses far more strength than normal humans; for example, he is able to easily lift individuals single-handedly and send them flying, and punch through concrete pillars. He is also able to lift vehicles off the ground, such as a pickup truck and even a bus and push a heavy barrel away with a flick of his finger.
- Superhuman Durability: Shazam possesses far durability then normal humans, as he is virtually invulnerable to most forms of harm; for example, Freddy Freeman broke a wooden baseball bat over him, he emerged unscathed from a wooden box that Freddy had doused in gasoline and ignited, repeated crashes into cars left him unscathed and bullets bounced off of Shazam on impact, even his face (only slightly "tickling" him).
- Superhuman Speed: Shazam possesses far more speed than normal humans; for example, he can move so fast that he looks like yellow streaks of light, thus being able to knock a criminal down before the latter even knew what happened, to save Mary Bromfield from being run over, and to quickly disarm a robber.
- Superhuman Agility: Shazam possesses far agility then normal humans; for example, he is able to dodge attacks and move around different objects relatively easily.
- Superhuman Stamina: Shazam possesses far more stamina than normal humans; for example, he is incapable of growing tired, despite running incredibly fast and flying through the air. He is also able to take multiple hits from Sivana and continue fighting without needing a break.
- Electrogenesis: Shazam can generate and project electricity from his hands.
- Electrokinesis: Shazam can manipulate electricity.
- Flight: Shazam is able to manipulate his own gravitational field to levitate or fly; for example, he can fly at great speeds and be able to keep pace with Sivana and the Seven Deadly Sins.
