From Whiz Comics #112 (June 1949), Fawcett Comics continues to draw a hard line between Billy Batson and Captain Marvel – which are still clearly different people, I was surprised to learn that this did not change until well after Fawcett went under and DC acquired the rights to the character. In fact, it wasn’t until the 1980s after the Crisis on Infinite Earths reboot, when Captain Marvel was established as Billy Batson’s mind in a superhero body. There is clearly much more story material to mine from this situation, so I’m glad they made that change – it made for a quite fun movie!
