In 1200 BC the wizard Shazam became a high priest to the pharoah Ramses II of Egypt. As Shazam grew older he needed to find a succesor which he found in Teth-Adam, Ramses' son. Adam was granted the powers of the Egyptian gods and protected the people of Egypt for many years. After his soul was imprisoned and corrupted he was locked away for many years until the Batsons discovered his tomb in which he killed them which unknowing to him was his succesor's parents. Black Adam now focuses on destroying the world that he thinks cursed him.
