[show]Jackson Bostwick was fired from "Shazam!" (replaced by John Davey) two episodes into the second season. Bostwick had sustained an injury during an episode's shooting and was getting medical treatment. Producers, however, mistakenly accused him of holding out for a higher salary. He filed a successful lawsuit against Filmation, which was forced to pay him for the remainder of his contract, including the remainder of the second season.

[show]The character of Captain Marvel was originally created by Fawcett Comics in the 1940s as a rival to Superman. A successful lawsuit by Superman's owner, DC Comics, resulted in the character disappearing for more than a quarter-century. DC, which had acquired the rights to the character, relaunched him in the comics in 1973. However, during Captain Marvel's long hiatus, DC rival Marvel Comics launched its own, unrelated Captain Marvel character, which prevented DC and the producers of this series from using Captain Marvel as a title. As a result, the title "Shazam!" was introduced. As of 2007, Shazam! is still used on all DC publications featuring the original Captain Marvel.
