King **Teth-Adam**, also known as **Black Adam**, is a supervillain from *DC Comics*. He appeared in the 41st episode and Season 2 Finale of DBX, Goku Black VS Black Adam, where he fought against Goku Black from the *Dragon Ball* series. He returned for the 91st episode, Apocalypse VS Black Adam, where he fought against Apocalypse from *Marvel Comics*.

## History

Teth-Adam was born thousands of years ago in Kahndaq, an Egyptian country that was one day overrun by barbarians from a faraway land, enslaving it’s people, including Teth-Adam and his nephew, Aman. In desperation, he sought the power to defeat his enemies and reclaim his home, and the Council of Wizards answered his call. While initially he was given the powers of the Greek pantheon, he would soon find greater power with the Egyptian pantheon, who named him their champion. Dubbed as "Black Adam", he slaughtered the people who enslaved Kahndaq and became its greatest hero. However, Black Adam grew drunk off his power and used it to forcefully overthrow Kahndaq's government, appointing himself ruler. Prioritizing the needs of his country over all else, Black Adam is always ready to show no mercy to any interlopers who dare cross him or his home.
