Superman finds a foe who may be too powerful even for him to defeat in the murderous Black Adam. Fortunately, Black Adam’s real target is the Earth’s Mightiest Mortal–Captain Marvel.
Jerry O’ Connell as Marvel reminds me of Tom Hanks’ Big and he compliments George Newbern’s Superman to a tee. Overall, I was sad to see a short film, as the quality was so high, I yearned for a full on feature. I hope DC hears this and delves into a Captain Marvel feature live action! I think DCU’s magic realm has a lot to offer…and while Dr. Fate doesn’t rear his head here, look out for a nice cameo at the end. It’s grrrrreat! Maybe Captain Marvel can follow a Smallville path on the CW as there is a lot of lore to hit this off, but I hope the cinemas are graced with this tale. I love this character, the family…and especially Black Adam! Osiris, Mary Marvel etc are all part of the lore to research, and since 52…this family has been quite interesting…and Adam is still a fave of mine at DC. Freddy Freeman anyone?…
