Black Adam vs. the world
|
During the 52 storyline Black Adam found some happiness with his wife Isis and her brother Osiris. Adam's happiness was short-lived, however, when the Four Horsemen of the Apokolips killed Isis and Osiris driving Black Adam insane with grief. In his madness the Black Marvel kills every man, woman and child in the country of Bilaya before continuing his rampage around the world forcing the planet heroic community to unite in order to stop him.
This storyline takes place between weeks 45 and 50 of the 52 series and details aspects of Black Adam's rampage from the perspective of the Martian Manhunter. The storyline is somewhat brief and some aspects of the storyline are changed slightly from how they appear in 52 but the major details are the same. The artwork is of the same level that was shown in 52 and if anything this story has proven to be even more compulsive reading than its parent series. Anyone who enjoyed 52 should enjoy this great series but you do need to the parent series in order to get the most out of it.
