    Black Adam

    Character » Black Adam appears in 853 issues.

    The original champion of the Wizard, Teth-Adam was a former slave who channeled the power of six Egyptian Gods to fight evil. But when his family was murdered during the conquest of his people, he developed more ruthless methods to protect innocents. Seeing him as corrupt, the Wizard banished "Black Adam" to the tomb of Ramesses II. After centuries of imprisonment, he would finally escape to overthrow Kahndaq's tyrant by force, becoming the country's defender and a natural enemy to the world's heroes.

    He was never a great villain like Kirby's classic Darkseid but he's a real punk now, Superman typically will go a few rounds with him but ultimately  bend him over and make a fool of him. In fact all characters from Fawcett/Whiz Comics have been violated by DC ever since they destroyed the comic company.

    I actually think Black Adam was a pretty nice character. One of my top DC characters in fact. I think they wrote him with more consistency then they wrote Captain Marvel.  I would love to see this series make a come back.

    52 and Shazam: Monster Society of Evil says hello! I haven't read much of the golden age and silver age stories with the Marvel family but those 2 books are the best  stories I've read with the Marvel family and Black Adam.
