Magic hits the Middle East as the trials continue for young Freddy Freeman. Freddie's still striving to earn back the full power of Shazam, while the Counsel of Merlin's own candidate for the power, Sabina, sabotages Freddy at every turn!
As I said in the beginning, this series is surprising me. Being a relatively hardcore Captain Marvel fan, I wasn't exactly looking forward to this series. But Winick and Porter have won me over. I can still get "my" Captain Marvel when Jeff Smith's Monster Society of Evil mini-series comes out in a few months.

Trials of Shazam #4 was a pretty unexciting read. I just don't find this new world of magic particularly captivating. The trials that Freddy has had to undergo have been lacking in creativity.
