To be fair, I think that the rating is for the entire package, not just the Superman/Shazam! short. James Harvey posts from The World's Finest: "A first for the DC Showcase animated shorts line - a co-production of Warner Premiere, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment Group, DC Comics and Warner Bros. Animation - the MPAA has officially handed down a PG-13 rating to the upcoming Superman/Shazam!: The Return of Black Adam animated short. Official details on the rating is featured below."

TITLE: DC Showcase Collection: Superman/Shazam!: The Return of Black Adam
RATING: PG-13
REASON: Rated PG-13 for violence and some sexual content
DISTRIBUTOR: Warner Premiere
ALTERNATE TITLES: DC Showcase Collection, DC Showcase Delivery, Superman/Shazam!: The Return of Black Adam

For an American produced cartoon featuring classic superheroes, PG-13 is progress.

Agreed, although i wouldn't mind some braver attempts like several R-rated animated film from the WB as well! Especially when one considers the DC comics Vertigo line of characters and copyrighted titles as well.

You're right. It was the Specter and Jonah Hex that ramped up the rating.
