2022 was not a good year for the superhero genre. The Return of Black Adam Superman/Shazam The Return of Black Adam Make your stand against evil with this collection of 4 DC Showcase Animated Shorts starring favorite DC Comics super heroes The Spectre, Jonah Hex, Green Arrow and Captain Marvel IMDb 7. All things considered, I was simply underwhelmed. Either way, I just wanted to see him get his ass kicked. Perhaps in my mind, I was comparing him to Marvel's Falcon and his much more personable and likable demeanor. His attitude and cockiness were unbearable, knowing that he would be easily defeated by the likes of Black Adam. The other characters.of course Dr Fate was a standout, but it was as if the writers purposefully wanted us to hate Hawkman. As for Black Adam.I usually like Dwayne Johnson's films, but in this one, he was stiff and wooden. There was no character building whatsoever, other than a one or two sentence dialog that tried to briefly explain how they came to be superheroes. Like so many others have reviewed, the Justice Society was simply thrown at us as if we were to already understand who they were. Hawkman's compound might as well been Dr Xavier's home for the X Men, complete with the aircraft rising from the front lawn. Atom Smasher was far too much like Ant Man. Hawkman even looked similar to Anthony Mackey. Everything about Black Adam felt like a low budget remake of Marvel characters.
While Dr Fate may have been introduced first in print, for those of us who aren't followers of the comics, Dr Strange is the sorcerer that we identify more with, simply because we got to see him first and certainly with more depth.
