 * This article is about the Fighter. For other uses, see Black Adam (Disambiguation).

, also known as Teth-Adam or Theo-Adam, is a Fighter from the DC Universe in MultiVersus. He was revealed on August 15th, 2022 and was released on October 31st, 2022 (originally slated to release a week earlier).

Origin
Black Adam is a character from the DC universe created by Otto Binder and C. C. Beck. Although he was originally portrayed as a supervillain and the ancient Egyptian predecessor of Shazam (originally known as Captain Marvel), who fought his way to modern times to challenge the hero alongside his family and associates, he was recently redefined as a corrupted antihero who only tries to clear his name and reputation.

Official Biography
"You see the world as a child does. "Good" and "evil" are not constants." "The ruler of Kahndaq bows to no mortal man."

Born in ancient Egypt, Teth-Adam was blessed by the wizard Shazam with the powers of the gods. His long life has been full of pain and trials, and it has hardened him into the stoic, calculating ruler he is today. Adam considers himself to be on no one’s side but his own, which has made him a beguiling on-again/off-again ally of his world’s greatest heroes. But one thing everyone can agree on is that being on Black Adam’s bad side never ends well.

Default Variant
Black Adam's default look seems to be based on his design from the Justice League of America (Volume 3) series of comic books.
