Black Adam, also known as Teth-Adam, is a complex anti-hero and occasional villain in the DC Comics universe. Originally granted powers by the wizard Shazam, the same powers that empower Captain Marvel (Shazam), Black Adam uses his abilities for his own often brutal form of justice, frequently clashing with superheroes and even other villains. He rules the fictional nation of Kahndaq with an iron fist, fiercely protective of his people and willing to cross any line to ensure their safety and prosperity. While possessing immense strength, speed, and magical abilities, Black Adam is often driven by vengeance and a rigid sense of morality rooted in ancient Kahndaq, making him a powerful and unpredictable force.
