First Printing

Theo Adam, C. C. Batson, and Marilyn Batson find the tomb of Teth-Adam. Adam claims Teth-Adam’s scarab necklace for Sivana, kills the Batsons, and leaves with their daughter Mary. Sometime later, a stranger leads Billy Batson to a subway car that takes him to the wizard Shazam, who gives him the power to become Captain Marvel. Later, Billy sees Theo Adam setting a bomb and stops him as Captain Marvel. Adam then uses Teth-Adam’s scarab to become Black Adam. But when Captain Marvel fights Adam he realizes Adam’s power comes from the necklace and removes it, changing Black Adam back to Theo Adam.
