Trivia

• When openly being an orphan in the comics, it is implicitly shown that this version of Billy Batson is also so (the fact that he is a minor living with his "uncle", sister and friend). It is not known whether this Captain Marvel began his career during the 1940s or if he was stuck in Suspendium; It seems that he began his heroic acts in more recent times.
