- You got your big chance. In all time and space, there's one day where you win. On every other day, gentlemen, you lose just like the last time!
- — Captain Marvel
The Multiversity: Thunderworld Adventures #1 is an issue of the series The Multiversity: Thunderworld Adventures (Volume 1) with a cover date of February, 2015. It was published on December 17, 2014.
Synopsis for "Captain Marvel and The Day That NEVER Was!"
It is a moment of peace in the Rock of Eternity, as the Wizard Shazam reviews the cosmic calendar, while practising his "omniscient narrator" voice. His practice comes to an end when he notices with surprise that a new day has been wedged in between Thursday and Friday - "Sivanaday". Wondering what this could mean, he is thrown from his seat when the Rock of Eternity is attacked - by a second, large, mechanical replica of the Rock of Eternity.
Inside this second Rock of Eternity, criminal savant Thaddeus Sivana believes he has worked out a way to replicate the powers of the Marvel Family. On his command, his children shout his name, "Sivana!", and are transformed into costumed super-humans. Gloating, Sivana sends them to attack the Marvels.
In downtown Fawcett City, ten-year-old Whiz Media reporter Billy Batson is reporting on the timequakes that are bringing temporal anomalies into the city. From Whiz HQ, his boss is filled with glee when a second Billy Batson appears in the broadcast, holding some crystals. Introducing himself as the future version of Billy, the newcomer tells his present self to warn Captain Marvel of Sivana's attack on Shazam and the creation of this eighth, impossible day. To help Billy, he offers the clues that he should look at the clock, and the position of the sun.
The Sivana Family shows up, gloating that they will crush Billy, but using a clever trick, he is able to give himself time to transform into his super-heroic secret identity of Captain Marvel. Letting loose with a supersonic whistle, he simultaneously stuns his foes and calls on his allies, Freddy and Mary.
On his artificial Rock of Eternity, Sivana peruses a copy of the comic book Conquerors of the Counter-World. While he is critical of its portrayal of scientists as cackling madmen, it had given him the idea to reach across reality, and make contact with his counterparts in other universes. Now, in contact via interdimensional video-chat, they can fulfill a plan to take over reality. The plan is enough to make the assembled legion of Sivanas all begin to cackle with glee.
Sivana muses that if his counterparts are like him, they will all try to betray him, but remains focused on his long-term plan: to use a mineral called suspendium, mined from the Rock of Eternity to create an eternal empire by commodifying time. As Sivana's robot servants turn the hall into a cubicle farm, Shazam, who has been caged, argues that by mining the unknowable heart of the Rock of Eternity and replacing it with rote, predictable machinery, they will render life meaningless. Sivana is unmoved, already considering the possibility of selling time to people who have wasted their lives so that they can waste even more time.
Shazam wonders where Sivana had even got enough suspendium to create an artificial day, and Sivana explains that it was gifted to him by his counterparts as part of his plan to take over the universe. His plan also requires that he tap directly into the power of the Wizard, and takes his staff.
In Fawcett City, Captain Marvel faces the Sivana Family, whose members have power, but lack training. Thaddeus, Jr. and Georgia are briefly able to overpower him, but the arrival of Mary Marvel and Captain Marvel, Jr. distracts them enough that the hero is able to throw them away with a mini-tornado. This gives Mary and Freddy the time to save some citizens from Magnificus.
Georgia gets into an argument with Mary Marvel about who is prettier, but Mary refuses to be drawn in. Georgia calls on Freddy to settle the dispute, and he caters to her vanity, begging to be told the name of the beautiful woman before him. Flattered, she obliges by saying her own name - and consequently calling down the lightning that removes her power - and beauty. Working fast, Freddy and Mary construct a muzzle from a nearby piece of metal, preventing her from changing back.
Magnificus, the last Sivana standing, gloats that this fight was just a distraction so that his father could free the Monster Society as another deadly threat. In the meantime, Sivana will be able to conquer the multiverse. However, the sudden arrival of Captain Marvel's friends, the Lieutenant Marvels - armed for monster-hunting - turns the tide again. Reluctantly, Captain Marvel leaves for the Rock of Eternity, leaving his friends to handle the attack on the city.

Shouting "Sivana!", he is transformed into Black Sivana - a fearsome superhuman who stands for the primacy of science over magic. Captain Marvel responds that the Wisdom of Solomon teaches that the two are one and the same, just two sides of the same human coin.
After stunning the villain by changing back into Billy Batson, the hero notices a cache of mined suspendium nearby, and realizes that he can use it to go back in time and warn himself. Grabbing a handful, he returns to the past and delivers his warning and the clues that he had himself received earlier - before being forced to return to fighting Black Sivana as Captain Marvel.
