Honestly, he hasn't had a whole lot more solo stuff than that, unless you're looking for golden age stuff. Power of Shazam is really the only title of his in the DC publishing catalog that's had anywhere close to that many issues. If you're looking for his golden age stuff, I'm not sure what to tell you: I'm going to assume DC is still working on one, but you'll never find a comprehensive one, because they had to scrap the most recently-planned one due to all the wartime politics occurring in many of the old back issues. They were initially done for the sake of patriotism, but they leaned a lot more heavily on racial caricatures than even similar works of the time
If you've read Power of Shazam in its entirety, you've honestly read the most comprehensive Shazam title to date
Damn just with how they portray shazam these days i felt it wasnt even canon. Not once outside of those comics have I seen black adam shown to inhabit a modern mans body. Iirc he somehow transferred his soul into a more modern day man who happened to have been a guy who murdered billys parents.
That was the intersting part to me Billy basically hated black adam for all the wrong reasons.
Yup, that's why I said 'comprehensive' and not 'definitive' - it's definitely not one of my favorite interpretations, it's just his longest-running one
If you want comprehensive and definitive Black Adam, you'd honestly be better off checking out Geoff Johns' JSA run
