I may be reaching a little bit here (pun intended), but I couldn't help but immediately make this comparison as it happened. I hope it was intentional!
What a weird release timing...we stayed up to midnight as usual to read and discuss this, gave it like an hour and it wasn't there, with several websites saying it wasn't gonna show up until tomorrow. Then I wake up and it's there. Oof.
Not a ton of easter eggs in this one. Some fun villain...
Good call about it getting destroyed, but I guess we'll see. The timeline of that new costume was certainly BUGGING me. ;)

I've only watched a few episodes (trying to make my way through it on Hulu) but I'd say if you're a fan of the Timmverse, it's definitely worth a watch. The first episode was primarily about Shazam/Marvel Family right out of the gate (even if they did stick in Batman for branding)! Some reused...
