- Black Adam is dead, and the Mesopotamian gods of Akkad are having a field day. Are the gods real or are they merely figments of human imagination? Accepting death but denied redemption, Black Adam becomes an ersatz Gilgamesh as he journeys through Akkadian Hell while Malik, his young descendant, goes to extreme and unethical measures to try and revive him, all the while wondering if he should save the life of one of the greatest evils the world has ever known.
When will the DC series arrive in stores?
The series is set to arrive in stores in June this year, a few months before actor Dwayne Johnson gives the character his first live-action portrayal in the upcoming Black Adam. The movie was originally scheduled to hit the theaters on July 29 but it went on to get delayed until October 21. While the solo series of Black Adam is going to be set in the main DC Universe, DC Comics will also be releasing a one-shots series, serving as prequels to the forthcoming movie, with one highlight being Hawkman.
Making his first appearance in The Marvel Family #1 in 1945, in the pages of DC Comics, Black Adam has mostly served as among Shazam’s greatest nemeses.
Writer for Justice League #75, Joshua Williamson also suggested in an interview with CBR that this overall experience might go on to influence how his reactions to the next generation of superheroes, like Jon Kent, in DC’s Dark Crisis event.
“[Black Adam] sees them as children,” Williamson said. “He doesn’t believe that even the members who have experience have what it takes to be considered the Justice League. There’s a scene later where he flat-out tells them that they’re lost in the shadow of the League. He does not believe in them. He has no faith in their abilities, and he feels that they are incapable of stepping up.”
