Hello CBMers!!!
Basic premise, after the big victory a few of our favorite superheroes gather for some drinks and a little discussion. Allowing commentary on comic book movie things and whatnot. Ok, so gathered here today we have: Atom, Zatanna, Hawkman, Black Lightning, and special guest: Shazam! The second shift crew.
ATOM: "Wow. That was tough. So glad we were able to stop Black Adam from punching off even more faces. Thanks to...uh...sorry, but what're you going by these days? Someone told me you had a name change."
SHAZAM: "Oh yeah. Well, I'm trying to get away from that whole Captain Marvel stuff. Now I'm trying to go by...actually, I can't really say it. Hmm. It's my magic word, and to say it would cause me to lose my powers."
HAWKMAN: "I thought your name was Big Red Cheese. If you need a new name, I'm pretty good at coming up with them. For you...I say, Red Lightning!"
BLACK LIGHTNING: "That's a little silly Hawkman. It's just, you know, taking the word 'lightning' and adding a color to it. Not very original."
The group looks confused, Hawkman scratching his chin.
ATOM: "But..."
ZATANNA: "It's Shazam then, isn't it?"
SHAZAM: "Yep.
Uses robotic voice Affirmative Zatanna."
ATOM: "So if we got you to say your name, you would lose your powers?"
SHAZAM: "Haha....uh...yep."
ZATANNA: "There's something so innocent about you. It's quite charming by the way. Would you want to grab a drink with me after we leave here?"
SHAZAM: "Yeah, we could do that! I still got some allowa...erm...
cough...money. You like milkshakes?"
HAWKMAN: "The guy's being asked out by the one and only Zatanna. And he's thinking about milkshakes? Zee? Asking out the Big Red Cheese?
shakes head Where the hell did I put my mace?"
ZATANNA: "Please Hawkman, grow up. He's ten times more mature than you."
SHAZAM: "Wow.
Cheeks turn red I didn't know you was asking me out, Zatanna."
BLACK LIGHTNING: "Damn, you know what I heard this week? That the old Big Red Cheese is getting his own feature film."
ATOM: "I heard about that! Yeah, it's called...um...umm...
snapping fingers...what was it?"
SHAZAM: "It's Shaz...ohhhh! Wait a minute! Nice try sir!"
ZATANNA: "I think a Shazam movie is a great idea. My vote goes to Jason Momoa to play our dear Shazam here."
BLACK LIGHTNING: "No, not going to be him. I think he's tied up with something else. What do you want to see in your movie Shazam?"
SHAZAM: "Umm...lots of explosions. Michael Bay should direct. Megan Fox for my girlfriend. Sweet race car scenes. Oh...oh...I know, the Rock should play me!"
HAWKMAN: "What the...? You sound like a thirteen year old? You're getting a movie? Seriously? The guy who can't even say his name? Seriously though, where the hell is my mace?"
ZATANNA: "I think it's absolutely cute."
BLACK LIGHTNING: "Anyway, how about team U.S.A? I think this year might be ours. World Cup or nothing."
ATOM: "You must not watch a lot of soccer BL."
BLACK LIGHTNING: "Naw, you got me. My girls play soccer, so I'm trying to show some interest in it. Beats having to watch 'Frozen' for the thousandth time."
SHAZAM: "Awesome movie. Probably the best animated film...ever."
HAWKMAN: "A person that claims that is either one of two things. One: someone who has not seen The Lion King. Or, Two: someone who is in fact thirteen."
ZATANNA: "Give it a rest Hawkman. He's just more topical and with the times than you."
HAWKMAN: "Sure. But I am also hip to the times. Just yesterday, I posted a pic to my MySpace page of me planking on the Golden Gate Bridge. So..."
BLACK LIGHTNING: "To be honest with you man, the more you say crap like that, the more old fashioned and pathetic you seem."
HAWKMAN: "Whatever. Would an old fashioned man bring a battle mace to a fight?"
BLACK LIGHTNING: "See wha I mean man? Exactly what I was just saying about you."
ZATANNA: "What're Batman's plans we have to implement this week Atom?"
ATOM: "It talks about some kind of word we can use next time we battle Black Adam. Although...dammit...I can't read it here...um..."
SHAZAM: "Oh,oh,oh, I know what it is! It's Sha...hey!!! Not this time sir. You are tricky."
ATOM: "Almost got you. But in all seriousness, Batman's plans are...hmm...this is weird."
ZATANNA: "What is it?"
ATOM: "Just has the heading title of: middle east. But there's no text, it just has a picture of a middle finger and the one word, 'it'."
BLACK LIGHTNING: "Ha...that's probably his most appropriate plan yet."
ZATANNA: "Well in that case. Looks like we have some free time. Care to buy me that drink handsome?
She pulls up closer to Shazam"
HAWKMAN: "You cannot be that attracted to him."
ZATANNA: "You better believe it.
Kisses Shazam on the lips"
SHAZAM: "
goofy grin...Oh, wow. Shazam.
A large bolt of lightning strikes Shazam, returning him to his thirteen year old Billy Batson form"
Everyone breaks out into a loud and raucous laughter.
