Black Adam #10

As we head to the final act of this packed miniseries, Priest is doing a good job of combining elements from the present, the recent past, and the remote past. Read Full Review

Black Adam #10 is another fine installment in a story that promises at least two more great issues, but clearly has more road to travel beyond just that. Read Full Review

As Black Adam enters into its last phase, I can't help but feel a certain level of anxiety around the last few issues. There's a lot to love about this series. It's chock-full of cool ideas and interesting character moments. I'm simply afraid that Priest won't be able to deliver a satisfying, cohesive ending with only two issues left. Black Adam #10, in many ways, is emblematic of the series: there's a lot going on, and none of it feels very cohesive as a narrative. Read Full Review

-Random thought from last issue: if the circle of crows are servants of the nth world, and the nth world is Thanagar, does that mean that they are Thanagarians or evil hath-set bad guys? Could this lead to a unified Egyptian DC lore that folds in Doctor Fate/Nabu, Khufu/Hawkman, and Teth Adam!?!? -Final confirmation? Teth-Adam created the Akkad by breathing in the space dust! -So the mystery is revealed? Adam can access the memories of his progeny/descendants! The original Theo Adam from Pre-Flashpoint continuity was a descendant of Black Adam, and his soul was possessed once he said SHAZAM. Black Adam would eventually expel the Theo persona during Johns' JSA. -So the nth metal signet rings and the power of Shazam are the floodgate s holding back this mysterious plague that is consuming both Malik and Teth-Adam. -The Fawcett lore! Ibac was originally a dude named Stanley Printwhistle, imbued by powers given to him by Satan himself IIRC. -So apparently the Circle of Crows pick an orphan every generation to host Ibac, and this incarnation seems tired of the neverending cycle of revenge: he sees himself and Adam as relics that have overstayed their welcome and are just pawns of Oni Grace's machinations. -No idea who the Sanheoli are, but why is Nergal trying to use them specifically as a tool in his agenda (that we don't know yet)? -When he refers to the man that raised him, is he talking about his dad Anu or is he talking about Adam (since he technically created all the Akkad)? -So Ishtar possesses Jasmin and is using her to fulfill her fantasies? Or is she trying to start a fight between him and Malik on purpose? -Subtitles: "Love & War" , "Strike Force" , "Probable Cause" , "Unexpected" , "Stanley" , "Flattered" more
