Another of my rare "Context is for the weak" posts
What could Billy Batson be looking at with such surprise? Is this the last time he investigates a menace at a San Francisco bath-house?
(Or is he thanking all the deities who make up "SHAZAM" that he IS gagged right at this moment...?)
Here's the context which should make it all better...
Ummm, okay. That's not really helping is it...
Maybe we need a little more context
(Shazam #27 from 1977) Dr Sivana, with the cimplicity of a time displaced Benedict Arnold, has hijacked the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia, and captured Billy in the process... Kid Eternity is in town, and is trying to help, unaware that Mr Keeper, the angelic-spirit who enables him to use his powers, is out of earshot....
These things always lose something in the context, no? :)

"Tie me up."
"... sorry, what?"
"Tie me up! You can't risk me getting away and warning the heroes, can you?"
"Well, no, but we were just gonna lock you in the cupboard."
"But tie me up first! Oh, and if you have any plaster or duct tape, gag me as well. C'mon damn it, I haven't got all day."
"Um, okay. Sure."
"Thanks!"
