Pretty much every metal page states that stats become a bit more level in the later stages of promotion. Injustice 2 Superman is not the best example as he gets BONUS stats with each promotion but nevertheless the statement still holds true. Here's some maths.

Base: IJ2 Superman - 1300/1500

Base: N52 Shazam - 3000/2700

At this base stage N52 Shazam has 130% more damage and 80% more HP.

EVII: IJ2 Superman - 50,895/109,350

EVII N52 Shazam - 83,859/140,537

So here you can see that Shazam still has the edge but in terms of pure numbers Shazam now only has 64% more damage and 28% more HP.

You also should factor in that metal cards are currently capped at EVII and level 50. With breakthrough IJ2 Superman can actually surpass Metal Shazam in HP once you get to EX. Not damage though unfortunately. Metal Shazam is a monster in that department.
