10 Worst Things Black Adam Has Ever Done
1. He Started “World War III”
After his destruction of Bialya, Black Adam traveled to Oolong Island to take revenge on the Science Squad. He killed several people but was captured by Chang Tzu. The JSA arrived and demanded his release to stand trial for crimes against humanity. Great Ten member Thundermind telepathically informed Alan Scott of China’s culpability in what had occurred. Unable to believe his former ally had done all this, Atom Smasher let Adam go.
Black Adam began a path of destruction across the continent. In Egypt, he defeated the Marvel Family and destroyed some of the Great Pyramids in the process. Three days later, Adam battled the Doom Patrol in Italy and knocked the Leaning Tower of Pisa over. Two days after that, he was destroying fighter jets in China, which refused to allow outside assistance.
It only took a day and the complete defeat of the Great Ten for China to change its tune. The JSA, JLA, Teen Titans, Doom Patrol, and other heroes had been waiting at the borders of China and swiftly attacked Black Adam. They were losing. Captain Marvel pleaded with the Egyptian Gods to remove Adam’s power. They refused. But Billy had a different idea. He called down the magic lightning and caught the bolt. Zatanna and the Phantom Stranger redirected it to hit Adam and Marvel, as the current Guardian of Magic, changed Teth-Adam’s magic word.
