Welcome back to top 10 Nerd, I’m Kat Jovey.
As many of you might know, Black Adam has been all the rage in the news with the confirmation
of his movie being made AND, THE ROCK playing him.
DROOOOLLLL.
Needless to say, it got me looking into Black Adam.
WHAT A BACK STORY.
For those of you who don’t know, he was given all the powers of Shazam but a LONG
time ago compared to the movie that came out this year.
At first, Black Adam was a good guy when the wizard gave him the power of SHAZAM, then
he turned evil and killed the pharaoh to take the throne, among other bad things.
Long story short, he was killed eventually once he was striped of his powers (fun fact,
he was striped of them and then agged rapidly then TURN TO DUST WWWHHAAATTT??? but there
are different Black Adams throughout the comic book universe
Today we’re going to look at the Top 10 Superpowers You Never Knew Black Adam Had.
Let’s get into it!
On account of this Egyptian background he had powers from Egyptian gods like Thoth for
Wisdom and knowledge, Amon for power, Aton, which enables Adam to wield thunderbolts.
But wait, there’s more!
10)At number 10 we have, Skilled warrior.
He’s been described multiple times as a highly skilled warrior even before he was
given the power of Shazam.
So these skills have been leveled up in his godlike body..mmmm, godlike body, no wonder
they cast The Rock.
9)Number 9 is Photographic Memory-Along with wisdom in this new powerset, he has a photographic
memory so is able to recall anything he has ever learned.
Which helps him out with things like reading and deciphering hieroglyphics as well as solving
difficult mathematical equations.
Let’s get into some more godlike ones:
8)At 8 we have the Power of Isis.
He also acquired the Power of the goddess Isis, which has made him stronger than ever.
Now when he says the magic word, he not only gains his usual powers, but they are all greater
in strength because of the extra power he gains from Isis.
7)For number 7 we have the fact that The Power of Isis also gives him control of nature however,
there aren't a lot of details on exactly what that includes.
6)At number 6 the The Power is Isis just keeps on giving!
It allows him to have telekinesis, that’s right he can move things with his mind.
But we haven't really seen this in full force yet.
5)Leaving the power of Isis for number 5 we have a defensive one.
Not only does he have courage, but a side power from that is that he’s able to push
away most mental attacks.
Take that Brainwave.
Jupiter's Legacy any one?
;)
4)For number 4, Interdimensional Travel.
This is an off-shoot of his lightning abilities.
Not only good for frying people, it also allow him to travel to the Rock of Eternity at one
point, thus allowing him the ability to not only time travel but to interdimensional travel
too.
3)A number 3 we have Magic resistance.
Man, this guy is like the borg.
His lightning powers also enable him resistance against all magic spells and magic attacks
(it’s really sounding like lightning is the power to have!)
2)Number 2 is the ability to transfer his powers when needed.
You might think, why the hell would he do that?
Well, for instance, he briefly gave Flash his power of speed which enables Flash to
defeat Johnny Sorrow by hitting him at near-lightspeed.
I’m having flashbacks to the first episode of The Boys.
If you haven’t watched it, I highly suggest it!
1)Finally at number 2 we have Invulnerability.
We already know that Stamina is one of his powers but did you know that in some stories
it’s made him basically invulnerable.
Again, he’s basically a god...or multiple gods in one.
Impressive
Well, that’s it!
