rumour was initially reported by Bleeding Cool claiming that out of  various plot twists that will be introduced in upcoming comic Infinite Frontier #0, Shazam's nemesis will take on a new name as part of his transition towards becoming a hero. name change to Shazam would go well with Black am reclaiming his old role as herald of wizard Shazam, leaving young Billy Batson out of job. However, sources close to makers of comic confirm that  Black am will be keeping his regular name in 2021. Brian Mendes co-creator of DC comics took to Twitter to call rumours 'stupid'.
