Will update this page over the weekend as most have not read Trails of Shazam 12 yet. But to make it simple Freddie is NOT the keeper of the Rock of Eternity despite the specific change in his superhero name.

- Isn't Freddy Freeman related to Kid Eternity? I know Kid's name has been up in the air for a while but I think they are in fact brothers. One being sent to one grandparent and the other to the other. Can we change that or why hasn't it been done?

- This was retconned out of continuity in Kid Eternity (Volume 2), if I'm not mistaken. However, feel free to add that information to the trivia section of the article.

Main Alias[]
So it occurred to me that I'm not sure if Freddy ever actually uses 'Captain Marvel' as his alias. The Trials of Shazam! #12 very explicitly says his superhero persona is 'Shazam', not Captain Marvel ("I am Freddy Freeman! I am Shazam!") and I'm pretty sure this is consistent in the few appearances he's had since then (i've read all of his later appearances aside from his two-issue mini-arc in Titans). Superman also refers to him as Shazam in Trials #12 which makes no sense but it is what it is.--Hi, I'm Amelia! 16:14, 23 April 2023 (UTC)
- Bumping this and adding another proposal, since we tend to gravitate towards 'iconic' designs/names for these characters, maybe just use CM3 as his alias and use an image of his blue costume. He was only Shazam for a year or two and didn't do much in the identity.--Hi, I'm Amelia! 19:05, 3 May 2023 (UTC)
