Zachary Levi’s Shazam! Can Text & Chew Gum in Latest Image
Zachary Levi’s DC superhero Shazam! finally gets his first official promo image thanks to this weekend’s upcoming pop culture convention, Comic-Con International in San Diego.
Ahead of the start of the show, which kicks of tomorrow, Entertainment Weekly debuted the latest cover of its upcoming Comic-Con Issue, one featuring the Big Cheese himself in all his jovial glory. EW revealed the cover on Twitter, after Levi asked the outlet if there was any way he could get it on the Comic-Con Issue goodness. Following the mention of the magic word “Shazam!” “please,” EW released the cover, which features the electric superhero chewing gum and texting at the same time.

This is meant to speak to the kid at the heart of Shazam, the alter ego of young, 14-year-old Billy Batson. With his very own EW Comic-Con Issue cover, it’s more than likely that Warner Bros. and DC will release something of note pertaining to the Shazam! film — perhaps even a trailer. We’ll know more following Warner Bros. big movie panel presentation this Saturday.
