Fawcett City

Notable characters	Captain Marvel Marvel Family
Publisher	DC Comics

Fawcett City is a fictional city appearing in stories published by DC Comics.

First appearing in the graphic novel The Power of Shazam! by Jerry Ordway in 1994, it served as the home base of Captain Marvel and the Marvel Family during the 1990s and 2000s. Its name is derived from the original publishers of Captain Marvel comics, Fawcett Comics. It is also home to Bulletman and Bulletgirl, Spy Smasher, Ibis the Invincible, Mister Scarlet and Pinky the Whiz Kid and Minute-Man; also characters from Fawcett Comics.

Features of Fawcett City include radio station WHIZ, which employs Captain Marvel's teenaged alter ego Billy Batson as an on-air and field reporter. Streets in Fawcett City have been named in honor of creators who worked on the Shazam property over the decades including Otto Binder (Binder Boulevard) and Bill Parker.

Fawcett City, like other fictional cities that appear in comics published by DC, has no exact location, besides being identified as being located in the Midwest region of the United States. However, in the 1990s series The Power of Shazam!, it was suggested that it was located in Wisconsin, thanks to various clues given by writer Jerry Ordway (who grew up in Milwaukee). A Teen Titans Secret Files & Origins special, however, stated that Fawcett City was located in Indiana and a map in JSA vs. Kobra #4 (November 2009) indicates that the city is in Minnesota. Fawcett City is also a small town compared to metropolis like Metropolis and Gotham City.
