“Still quite fun, though I’ve never been a big Black Adam guy. He’s DC’s Doctor Doom, and he’s just not a huge asshole like Doctor Doom is.
Read Secret Wars (the first one). Doom is an amazing dickhead, arrogant as fuck. He refuses to join any other faction, he thinks they’re beneath him, and in this book it’s made canonical that Doom narrates everything he does because he’s recording it all.
But my FAVORITE Doom is from a Brian Clevenger book where Doom is insulted by the suggestion he use a door: “The door? Like a peasant!?”
What I’m saying is that Black Adam reminds me of Doom, and much like the difference between taking a watery shit and a huge, satisfying dump, the lesser version just doesn’t cut it.”
