The Marvel Family, also known as the Shazam Family, are a group of
superheroes who originally appeared in books published by Fawcett
Comics and were later acquired by DC Comics. Created in 1942 by writer
Otto Binder and artist Marc Swayze, the team was created as an
extension of Fawcett's Captain Marvel franchise, and included Marvel's
sister Mary Marvel, their friend Captain Marvel Jr., and, at various
times, a number of other characters as well.Because Marvel Comics
trademarked their own Captain Marvel comic book during the interim
between the demise of the Fawcett Comics' Captain Marvel comics in
1953 and DC's revival in 1972, DC Comics is today unable to promote
and market their Captain Marvel/Marvel Family properties under those
names. Since 1972, DC has instead used the trademark Shazam! for their
comic book titles with the Marvel Family characters, and the name
under which they market and promote the characters. When referring to
the Marvel Family on comic book covers or various merchandise, they
are by this legal necessity called the "Shazam Family".In 2012, DC
officially changed Captain Marvel's name to Shazam, making Shazam
Family the name of the superhero's associates. In current continuity,
the Shazam Family comprises the superpowered alter egos of Billy
Batson (teenaged alter-ego of Shazam/Captain Marvel) and his foster
siblings: Mary Bromfield (formerly Mary Marvel), Freddy Freeman
(formerly Captain Marvel Jr.), Darla Dudley, Pedro Peña, and Eugene
Choi.The Shazam Family make their cinematic debut in the DC Extended
Universe film Shazam!, released in 2019 by New Line Cinema and Warner
