Yeah, in most of the comics, animated movies and tv shows, Superman was just as weak to magic as everyone else, but not weaker. That being said, it didn't really matter cause being as weak as everyone else to magic attacks pretty much means you lose vs most people with magic lol.

In the animated movie I saw, black adam even stated that superman was weak to his magic/lightning attacks, so in that interpretation even elemental damage created by magic (lightning in this case) could seriously hurt Superman (or weaken him so black adams punches etc could knock him out).

In that animated movie there was no equal fight, black adam would have killed superman multiple times if Shazam didn't save him. I know it all depends on the writers etc, but to me (and I think most) I have not gotten too much exposure to shazam/black adam, so a animated movie, the direct movie that came out a few years ago, and the new black adam is pretty much it for me.

Supes even makes a cameo at the end of the Shazaam movie hehe

There I used a spoiler thingy!!

Anyway, I don't know if it's true that they are rebooting (Again) the entire DC universe for films, but they really need to work on things. There may be multiple marvel universes, and reboots of some of the primary characters etc, but over all they have worked pretty well with each other and people can follow along with the story/universe etc. Even though there has been 3 spiderman they literally had a movie with all 3 of them. DC on the other hand has a bunch of batmans that all are pretty freaking different, and honestly I have only liked one, semi liked another, and was meh about the last 2 (Ben Affleck wasn't horrid in my opinion, but nothing to jump up and down about. The last twilight dude was so bad I didn't finish the movie.

I liked the original wonder woman, and that actress was good as her, but the second movie was bad enough I don't mind her going away (wasn't her fault).

Flash is just a literal dumpster fire right now.

Aquaman was....ok....but nothing amazing, and then you had the whole heard that controversy , so that going away isn't a big problem either.

Honestly DC has just lost to Marvel so badly at this point I don't even really compare them. I DID like the harlequin movies pretty much, with those and the first wonderwoman being the only DC movies I really enjoyed watching all the way through at least once (wonder woman 3 times).

A fresh new take could be nice, but if you REDO the superman origin story another time I don't think anyone is going to line up for that. It's been done too many times now, in movies, tv shows etc. There is a point where you just gotta say, "ok, everyone knows his origin, lets just start with him being superman already" and we are WAY THE HECK past that point.
