Their strength is almost unlimited, and both are immune to virtually any kind of physical damage. When it comes to strength and durability, no one on Earth can go head-to-head with Superman other than Shazam and vice versa. While Superman’s powers come from his Kryptonian physiology, Shazam’s might comes from magic – which is ultimately one of Superman’s weaknesses. Whenever Billy speaks the word Shazam, he turns into the invincible superhero, and when he says it again, he reverses back to being Billy. Billy Batson is just a kid, but when a wizard deems him to be pure of heart, he grants him the incredible powers of Shazam, or the magical powers of six gods: the Wisdom of Solomon, the Strength of Hercules, the Stamina of Atlas, the Power of Zeus, the Courage of Achilles, and the Speed of Mercury. On the other hand, Shazam’s power comes from a different source. But, get him closer to the yellow sun, and his Kryptonian physiology allows him to supercharge, making him unfathomably powerful. Remove him from the yellow sun, and he becomes a mortal again. His body is accustomed to the red sun’s radiation, while the yellow sun charges his cells with energy, which he can manipulate and manifest into all of his superhuman abilities. However, things changed when Superman came to Earth because it revolves around a yellow sun. His planet was near a red Sun, and all the Kryptonians had normal, human-like abilities. The source of his powers is his physiology. But, the source of his powers is pretty much natural for his kind because Kal-El is an extraterrestrial from Krypton. Many people think that Superman’s powers are an anomaly, something supernatural. However, the source of their powers is different.

They both have superhuman strength, stamina, durability, reflexes, and additional superhuman powers. Superman: Source of PowerĪs I mentioned, Shazam and Superman have very similar powers, which is why their every battle in the comics was close.
