[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/41192574/chapters/103265178 Who's Old Now]] is a ''WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom'' and ''ComicBook/{{Shazam}}'' crossover story. Danny has retired from the hero game, but comes to the attention of the Justice League when Captain Marvel calls him about a ghost causing issues. Due to what they heard of the conversation, the League assumes that Captain Marvel is Danny's adoptive father, when in reality the ''opposite'' is true due to how becoming Captain Marvel makes Billy Batson look older, while for Danny his human form has aged but his ''Phantom'' form hasn't. They run with it.

* EntertaininglyWrong: When Captain Marvel calls Danny for help with a ghost, the League assumes that the Captain adopted Danny due to the looks of their alternate states, when it's really the other way around.
* HappilyAdopted: Danny has taken in Billy as his ward, even homeschooling him so he has time to do his heroic duties without it interfering with his schoolwork like what happened with ''him''.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Danny's ghost form still looks as if he's fourteen, despite his human side having aged normally.
* RetiredBadass: Danny, while still pretty powerful, has retired from being an active hero by the time of the story.
* SecretKeeper: Jason Todd/Red Hood is one of the only non-family members to know the truth about Captain Marvel and Phantom.
* YoungerThanTheyLook: As in canon, Billy's Captain Marvel form makes him look a lot older than he actually is.
