INTERNAL CONFLICT OVERVIEW
โโโโโโโโ โขโงโข โโโโโโโ
GOAL/DESIRE
After years of disappointment in the foster system, Billy's goal/desire throughout the story is to find his โtrue familyโ where he wants to feel a true sense of love & belonging.
FEAR
Billy fears that he will never find a group of people who will want to love/care for him & that he will spend the rest of his life isolated and alone.
MISBELIEF
Billy is under the misbelief that his birth mother is the only person who can give him this sense of belonging. Billyโs memories of her from his early childhood are the only moments of his life he ever felt truly cared for.
CHARACTER ARC
โโโโโโโโ โขโงโข โโโโโโโ
Billy starts the story as a troubled teen who lets his misbelief that his birth mother is his one โtrue familyโ guide his every decision.
This leads to him to act cold/distant from the people in his life that are trying to make an emotional connection with him. Heโs had a long history of being emotionally burned before, and heโs not interested in getting attached to another temporary home.
Throughout the arc of his story he learns to open himself up to the Vasquez siblings. When the Vasquez siblings give Billy that sense of love/belonging he was looking for, Billy learns that family isn't defined by blood but by people who genuinely care about you.
End.

This is my version of Mary Bromfield. ^_^
Right now Iโve just been experimenting with how I would write my own version of the Shazam origin stories and what modifications I could make to the character dynamics to make it my own. As of right now I deciding to change the sibling lineup a little bit to make Mary and Billy closer in age. I think that this would really emphasize both of their personalities, him being a bold, humorous trouble maker. And then her being a shy, wallflower kinda girl who tries to keep herself out of trouble.
This puts Freddy as the oldest sibling, which Iโm not really sure how much I like that idea so far. Maybe he could kinda use his goofy nature to have a good older brother dynamic with the other kids. Idk Iโm still working on it.
If you have any ideas or suggestions for this storyline please comment below!! ^_^ โก๏ธ๐
Work in progress!
This is my concept for the train car that Billy gets off of landing at the Rock of Eternity. I imagine the rock as a giant floating island thatโs covered in jungle and rainforest plants, so I drew the train car after it gets magically transported to the rock so Billy can get his first glimpse of the magical other world.
My other Rock of Eternity concept art is [ HERE ] ๐ด๐ ๐ชจโก๏ธ
A quick little Samara doodle ^_^
Hopefully will be drawing my version of the Shazam characters more since I have all their designs down to a place I like atm.

PERSONALITY/NARRATIVE ROLE
โโโโโโโโ โขโงโข โโโโโโโ
Mary is the voice of reason out of all her siblings, and a stabilizing force amongst their more chaotic impulses. She can be a little stuck up or a know-it-all at times however, at her core sheโs always a team player.
Maryโs role in the story is to the the responsible team coordinator. Her more organized and clever approach to situations provides a sharp contrast to her siblings, who are often more reckless and impulsive.
Mary understands that Billyโs past has primed him to be sneaky and crafty when put into a bad situation because sheโs the same way. This gives them both a friendly sibling rivalry dynamic.
LESSON OVERVIEW
โโโโโโโโ โขโงโข โโโโโโโ
Maryโs lesson throughout the story is helping Billy adapt to a more team-oriented skill set. Showing him how to take everyoneโs needs into consideration to help people who rely on him.
Helping him understand the importance of teamwork and being reliable so that he can become a proper leader/hero.
Maryโs clever and quick-witted personality is a tool sheโs used throughout her life to get her out of many bad situations. However, once she was placed into the Vasquez house sheโs learned to use those skills to be a pillar of strength for her siblings. Being someone who her siblings can rely on in times of need, and sheโs teaching Billy how to do the same.

Hereโs Freddyโs design for both his regular form and his superpower form! โก๏ธ๐ฉต
I was hoping to actually pick a different color for Freddyโs chest emblem however, I wanted to save a golden/yellow color for Maryโs design instead. But thatโs okay I think he still works with a monochromatic and blue kinda vibe sooo yeah :)
Hii all!!
Sorry I havenโt posted,,, my Shazam hyper-fixation has subsided.
I probably wonโt be active on this account until itโs back in full swing again.
Thank you for your understanding!! โค๏ธโก๏ธ
Drawing an updated Shazam/Captian Marvel design!! โก๏ธโค๏ธ
Lots of minor tweaks over the past year but Iโm pretty happy with the updated version. Iโve been trying to understand 3D shapes & drawing forms since I started drawing Shazam and Iโm excited to learn more! ^_^

INT. SUPERSTORE - NIGHT (YEARS AGO)
A young BILLY, no older than four, stands near a shopping cart. His mother, MARILYN, a tired woman in her early 20s, rummages through her purse as she stops pushing her cart. She glances at Billy.
MARILYN
Stay right here, baby. I'll be back in a sec.
Unbeknownst to Billy, Marilyn is a local weed dealer within her community. She begrudgingly brought Billy along for a late night โmeetupโ since she wasnโt comfortable leaving him home alone at his young age.
As Marilyn rushes away, Billy's attention wavers, captivated by two young children playing with action figures and dolls. Their laughter fills the aisles as they run around, screaming and cheering.
Billy walks away from his motherโs shopping cart and approaches them with wide eyes.
BILLY
Woah! What toy is that?
CHILD 1
Itโs Star Commander Ultra! Heโs the bravest hero in the galaxy.
The younger of the two children chime into the conversation to brag about their toy as well.
CHILD 2
Well my doll is Princess Butterfly Sparkle Glitter, and sheโs the bravest and the coolest in all twelve galaxies!
CHILD 1
Thereโs only one galaxy, Macy.
CHILD 2
You donโt know that.
As the two children settle their differences, they agree to let Billy in on their game as they run around the store shouting and having fun.
Suddenly a mother rounds the corner and shouts for her children to come. She makes a vague comment that sheโs done shopping and theyโre leaving the store now. The children hurriedly say bye to Billy as they run off to go catch up with their mother.
Billy is suddenly left alone. Anxious, confused, and unable to find the shopping cart where his mother told him to stay.
Billy frantically looks around. Panic sets in as he realizes he's lost.
Billy hurriedly rounds a corner, running face first into the legs of a police officer. A young blonde woman, OFFICER LINDSAY as he falls onto the floor.
OFFICER LINDSAY
Oh, whoopsies! Haha, thatโs alright bud. You okay?
Although Billy is too stunned to reply, Officer Lindsay helps Billy off the ground. Her concern deepens as she looks around the store, realizing this child is unattended. She takes it upon herself to help Billy find his mother.
As Billy and Officer Lindsay roam the store looking for Marilyn, they eventually find her in a heated discussion with some of the employees at the store, supposedly about her suspicious activities. Marilynโs face drops, as she realizes her son is being escorted by a police officer.
As Billy runs up to his mother to give her a hug Officer Lindsay is giving Marlyn a deep, powerful scowl as they are locked eye-to-eye.
EXT. SUPERSTORE - NIGHT
As MARILYN is led away by other police officers, OFFICER LINSDAY returns to BILLY, kneeling down to his level.
OFFICER LINDSAY
Hey bud, how do you feel about coloring books? If you want we could color together in this book that I brought with me.
She pauses for a moment as Billy looks around kind of confused, supposedly unsure of where his mother is.
OFFICER LINDSAY (CONโT)
I could really use your help with coloring these tigers, if you wanted to help me out.
Billy agrees, as is unaware of the circumstances that are going on around him, but he follows Officer Lindsayโs lead as she distracts him from the situation at hand.
Officer Lindsay takes Billy's hand, leading him away from the arrest of his mother. The shouts of the night slowly blend together as we fade to the next scene. Between scenes we timeskip to โcurrent dayโ.
INT. SOCIAL WORKER'S OFFICE - DAY
As we transition scenes the sounds of the night slowly blend together into the sound of Billyโs social workerโs voice, MRS.KELLY. She is calling Billyโs name, trying to get his attention. BILLY (14) sits in a worn office chair outside of Mrs.Kellyโs office. Arms folded, staring off into space.
MRS.KELLY
(echoing during scene transition)
Billyโฆ Billy.
Billy lightly flinches as he snaps back into reality, realizing he is being called.
MRS. KELLY
Come on in, let's talk.
Billy haphazardly tosses his backpack onto the open chair next to him as he does some light stretching, making himself comfortable, as he is evidently in no rush to sit down.
BILLY
Ah, how could I forget, olโ reliable. You know, instead of you guys spending all this time and money trying to put me into a foster home, I could just live here instead.
They sit across from each other, the atmosphere charged. Mrs.Kelly is clearly annoyed with his snarky tone.
MRS.KELLY
Billy, you know we're running out of options here. Iโm really gonna need you to get your act together.
BILLY's eyes narrow, a trace of bitterness in his tone.
BILLY
Uh-huh.
MRS.KELLY
You already know why youโre here.
BILLY
I do.
MRS.KELLY
And you already know what Iโm gonna say.
BILLY
True.
Billy loosely crosses his arms as he settles in his chair, getting ready to imitate Mrs.Kelly as they speak over each other.
BOTH
(synchronized)
That I brought you in here today to tell you that youโve been assigned to a new foster home.
Mrs.Kelly sighs, clearly familiar with Billyโs tone.
MRS.KELLY
Look, I know it's been a tough year for you. But this time has to be different.
Mrs.Kelly shoots Billy a serious look, piercing through his playful demeanor with an authoritative gaze.
MRS.KELLY (CONโT)
This time, you've got to give them a chance.
Billy's gaze hardens, his frustration bubbling beneath the surface.
BILLY
(challenging)
A chance? How many chances do I have to give? How many "homes" will I go through before you guys actually start listening to me? I donโt need a fake family to play pretend with. I have a family, I have a mom, theyโre out there, looking for me.
Mrs.Kelly's expression softens, a mix of empathy and weariness.
MRS.KELLY
Billy, Weโre not going to have this discussion again, weโve been over this. You can do whatever you want when youโre 18, but for now the state is responsible for you. Which means Iโm responsible for you, and I need you to try and play along, just a little longer.
Billy's guard waivers for a moment, feeling frustrated and unheard. His snarky attitude now takes a backseat to his more quiet exterior as he momentarily exposes his feelings of rejection and helplessness.
BILLY
But Iโm tired of it. I just wanna make my own decisions instead of you guys and your โagencyโ shoving fake families and broken homes onto me like Iโm some sort of charity case.
Mrs.Kelly leans back, sighing. She knows she's dealing with a determined young man whoโs clearly had a rough start to life.
MRS. KELLY
Youโre not a charity case, youโre a young man. A young man with a bright future ahead of you, and weโre just trying to do whatโs best for you.
Mrs.Kelly pauses to make sure she has Billy's attention despite his sudden drop in bravado.
MRS.KELLY (CONโT)
Iโm trying to do whatโs best for you.
Billy nods, a hint of a reluctant acknowledgment. He lets out a sharp scoff.
BILLY
Yeah, I've heard that one before too.
