THERE IS NO REDEMPTION FOR BLACK ADAM. Thousands of years ago, did Black Adam inadvertently create a powerful race who've modeled themselves after the Akkadian pantheon of goddesses and gods? Or is he being gaslighted, taunted by illusions, by one of his many enemies? Theo Teth-Adam finds only more questions when he is lured to the Akkadian Hightower and given a cryptic message. Meanwhile, Adam has dispatched Etrigan the Demon, an unlikely ally, to either train his youthful successor or kill him.
It's chaotic fun, but more importantly it seems to be very interested in exploring the long legacy of Black Adam and what his ties to ancient Egypt actually mean for the character. Read Full Review
Black Adam #4 maintains the high-quality writing and art from the previous three issues.

If these two and the rest of the creatives on this issue keep up the good work, then Black Adam will most likely become a modern-day classic. Read Full Review

This is a consistently mid series. Really doubt Rock fans will enjoy it, if not even comprehend it.
