Shazam - Captain Marvel - Major Revision

So this is something that I’ve been wanting to do for a while. The Shazam and Captain Marvel (Billy Batson) pages have been a major mess for quite a while now. That’s not to diminish the work that the creators of them did, because it’s good… but it can be better.



First of all, let’s start with Captain Marvel – The Big Red Cheese. (I'll do Shazam another day)



Two things that immediately stand out are the fact that he lacks Resistance to Fear Manipulation – When the demon Abaddon tried to use his fear, a fear that was said to scare any mortal, Shazam straight up punched the demon right back. When he realized that fear would not work, Abaddon fled back to hell - https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-009a974c2d8101b496b1136092040f97



Next, he’s shown a great resistance to Mind Manipulation… but how can we ever forget his Hypno Stare? In fact, he used said power to call back Spy Smasher’s true nature when a spell made him forget who he was.



Mind Manipulation is clearly one for the book, even though it’s not something that he uses very often - https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-42b8d1e7bad21318ae91020ce6028e81



Another thing of note is that he’s fast enough to make a speed illusion - https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-1344e67382ebdd5bb6dea82cb8cc45eb





He’s capable of combining all his powers together, such as the time that he did so to resist a charge from the Egyption God Set - https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-7d2e3306761d097ac095579a145165dd



So here’s a few things that I didn’t know beforehand… but he can become Intangible - https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-4429f039d33c7014595a31810a2238a2



He’s capable of knowing if something is evil - https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-d99fc4ea059f8ba436dd2d9a3250481e



Another thing of note is that if he’s struck by lightning, which normally changes him back or not, he can actually will himself to stay in his Shazam form. - https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-ec16421f92a8b45f28fad5023c260af7



There’s so much more, but that has to be done another day.





I used Reddit to gather the information - https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-most-powerful-version-of-Shazam-and-why and simply brought it to a manageable point.
 
You do realise you're using stuff like golden age and rebirth which are not canon to each other right? Have you not heard of the crisis on infinite earths?
 
But I agree with resistance to fear manipulation.

Also, Neron actually corrupts, not mind controls. Shazam should get power nullification of corruption and the ability should be changed on his profile
 
Which of these feats happened during the post-Crisis continuity?
