more "wizard-like"

Keep an eye out for the "Trials of Shazam!" miniseries that starts next month. Captain Marvel will become the new Wizard (not sure what he'll change his name to, hopefully not Shazam), and Captain Marvel Jr. is going to get to move up one chair. THAT'S when Cap gets the new Space Ghost-ish duds. Remember that 52 happens a little less than year in the past of the "current" DC Universe happenings, so we're seeing Captain Marvel long before the "Trials" hit.

Mary Marvel, however, appears to be getting the dishrag treatment.

But as far as this issue of 52 goes, I'm sure the writers just wanted a cheap laugh out of a character they can't seem to write for.
