-
Flerken (@NotFlerken) reported@DragonMaster478 @ExigaNail @DEB10042 It’s just how things have been for decades. He was called Captain Marvel all the way through the 2000s. In New 52, DC decided they wanted to get rid of the complicated rights issue by just naming him Shazam instead. Which led to a lot of conflict with fans.

:) (@marcopoloed) reportedPlayed a song and asked my roommate to guess who the artist is. Guy cheekily pulls his phone out to make it seem like he’s texting someone and i saw his hand move from the top of the screen to shazam it. Puts down his phone a few secs later of fake brainstorming he gets it right

Tyrecea⚛️ (@Tyrecea_z) reportedBesides the black adam 6 issue or maybe it was 12 issue comic of bolt. I do not know this *****, I just like a concept of a black guy as Shazam-esque character

lay 🤓🤓🤓🤓 (@faultinourseal) reportedi genuinely love shazam i was at a coffee shop the other day, sat down, and immediately felt the need to shazam every single song bc the playlist was ******* fire

Joseph Mora (@PapiNCali) reported@TaroPh59854 @MadonnaUltimate That sounds dramatic, but it does not really hold up from a music industry standpoint. Nobody needs an organized scheme to make a record underperform. The market does that all by itself. Streaming, radio callout, playlist retention, repeat listening, TikTok traction, Shazam activity, sales stability, and week-two drops tell the story. If a song connects, it holds. If it does not, no amount of “they are trying to erase her legacy” explains the public not coming back to the track. Madonna’s legacy is not being erased. Her legacy is already written. The issue is that some fans confuse legacy with current demand. She can be the Queen of Pop historically and still have a single that does not perform like a major hit in 2026. Those two things can exist at the same time. And honestly, blaming invisible “people hungry for the Queen title” feels like a distraction from the actual rollout. If the song had smashed, nobody would be talking about conspiracies. They would be posting chart receipts. But when you have label investment, Sabrina Carpenter attached, Coachella-adjacent hype, The Abbey, Grindr promo, listening parties, and still the numbers do not match the noise, that is not a takedown campaign. That is a rollout failing to convert attention into consumption. The music business is not sentimental. It does not care how iconic you are. It cares whether people stream the song again tomorrow. Madonna is not being erased. She is being measured. And that is what some fans cannot handle.

keldog (@keldog4) reported@EthicalSkeptic @JohnPlatner I started w/ google, gave them all the info. they wanted. Tried a few times through them and I failed. Then used Woo..2 single orders (myself and brother-in-law). Then Shazam sent a fraud alert and mentioned Milton, Georgia and ******/dating service? I have windows 10 computers
-
Maxime Aubin (@MaximeAubin1) reported@RealTomPetrini I had no service so I couldn’t Shazam this one 😢
-
Ziggy (@ZquadboyZ) reported@dailystarzam Retire Billy, have the Shazam mantel be passed down every couple years, because Billy staying a child ruins any semblance of a timeline. Also Shazam is a cool name
-
jon kent apologist (@jonkentism) reportedbc get this theyre both physically invulnerable so they tricked themselves into thinking that its the same mental wise too, and theyre WROOOONG!!! in the shazam issue, jon turning into a kid again was quite such a big thing and he AVOIDED jay +
-
Ads (@Adsnewaccount) reported@archrxz @CQuill97 1. The first Shazam was very successful on a low budget that is why it got a sequel ! 2. Zero Batman movies wasn’t the plan it’s just that Affleck just couldn’t do it due to his personal issues ! 3. Pattinson and Reeves don’t want it and Gunn respects that choice
-
DarthDan (@FanAttic007) reported@Jabz_CFC Shazam 2 was a terrible movie probably the worst DC comic book movie ever ! And yes that includes Ryan Reynolds green lantern
-
PlanetFanatix (@planetfanatix) reportedGod these are awful. I truly wish DC figures could fall into Hasbro‘s hands. McFarlane isn’t even trying at this point. I have been waiting for a black Canary and she looks terrible. Vigilante is OK in that new Shazam 🤮🤮
-
Robert P. Glover (@RPGlover) reported@TheComicSource Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, following the trajectory of failure around the aged up version of the character and the publication of perhaps the worst treatment of the property with the deceptive de-age in Shazam issue 20, this Superman Unlimited arc WOULD be a hoax if the young version of Jon does not remain in current continuity. Too often, editors forget that fans are people also- customers marking tally over each and every deficient story arc, and glaring lack of competence marring canon over time. DC certainly paid no attention to sales numbers, fan feedback, Go-Fund-Me campaigns… watching the publisher fall on their face with the Jon Kent character- heck, with core Kryptonian titles, has not been “fun.”

Pavlos 🦅 (@the_shrimp_lord) reported@ihatemeen_ superman would beat any of them one on one but shazam and wonder woman together could probably take him down also batman would def kryptonite on standby if this ever happened
-
RedeemedRobin 🏳️🌈 (@redeemedrobin) reported@midnightcomicss It's Jay who would be a p3dophile. Jon was still 11 when Jay was already in college, with was only a few weeks before Jon went to space with his known mad grandfather. Also Jay was fine being in a relationship w/Jon while deaged in Shazam issue
-
Anny (@AnnySan1048425) reported@HanisRashidi @joker573426 @Rigoldente79928 Down so bad with no real streaming numbers to brag about that they’re flexing Shazam searches now..like it’s the same thing as streams. 😭 They really think 400k counts as streams. Its like never even went to school😭
-
𝐏𝐑𝐈𝐌𝐄 (@SUPERB0YPRlME) reportedMy appearance in Shazam will always be worse you literally cannot do anything as terrible
-
Ashley Serakalala (@ashseraka) reportedHe wouldn't be back if the people of Voslo didn't shut down those Shazam shops !!! Power to the people, now make sure those Shazam shops never operate!!
-
SAFI / Mia(sma) (@mia_saneart) reported@NeilGrassTycon @xenvuen the account is GONE i can't even look that up to find it. shazam is not working. thump my life
-
dELUsional (@Elutrixx) reported@hawolt I mean I understand the frustration, but as a fan and coder myself: I was more impressed by the custom shazam while at the same time thinking "yeah but im never gonna need this" I watch twitch a lot so the adblock did directly solve a problem i had
-
Jaymovies (@juliandceu) reported@jayjjalen I know the plots with his own villains are already so much better than king Shazam or the Ras plot. Like his parasite 2 issue was even better.
-
Spiderkid10000 (@SwigittyS) reported@Fenrirtheicewo1 Literally DCAU Shazam scales to teh destruction of Apokolips. Speed is a really real issue however.
-
Julie Barrett (@juliecbarrett) reportedLast week Idaho Governor Brad Little signed HB 542, Stop Harms from Addictive Social Media Act (SHASM - ADF calls is “Shazam!! 💥”) While the bill seems to have good intentions, it’s impossible to implement without universal age verification - handing MORE data of children to Big Tech - and constant behavioral monitoring of children online. This “solution” will undoubtedly make the problem worse. Additionally, it is the opposite of “parental empowerment”, forcing a government mandate on every family.
-
Dralcor (@DralcorSol) reported@dak_daze @grok Maybe the XE video? I don't know, and Shazam is not working for me right now. Just a thought
-
Nennings (@Simplynene456) reportedIn the church now one the phone one of the media guy is using to make video is very very. I could tell from the interface that it’s a Samsung phone but the know the exact, my problem now is how to go meet the guy to find out. I wish I could just Shazam it mehn😩😩
-
Péist Mhór (@BigWorm11174792) reportedShazam had no answer for blade 2. Close to infallible normally, 3 wrong answers tonight!! Just put on pulp fiction and it had no problem picking up tracks from that.

〚 ⋆ 𝑭𝑼𝑺𝑰𝑶𝑵𝑶𝑷𝑶𝑳𝑰𝑺 2000. ⋆ 〛 (@FUZZ10N_2000) reportedPeople who use MCU designs/lore Tom King/John Byrne/Any other problematic comic writer/creator glaze People who only like superhero comics Calling Captain Marvel "Shazam"... Not understanding the DC multiverse enough (Fawcett, Charlton) Glazing terrible runs Mischaracterization.
-
R.J.A. Gilbert (@TaleMasterTOV) reported@OrevaZSN A good parent doesn't stop their kid from drinking half a liter of disinfectant. They put something that tastes terrible (but won't kill the kid) into the "disinfectant bottle" and leave it where the kid will find and try it. Shazam! The kid no longer wants to drink that stuff.

Frisco D'Lozano (@phlegMAGA) reported@thechosenberg If you're thirty eight and actually made plans to see Shazam, you have much bigger issues than her.
