Just thinking about how one of, if not the reason Billy doesn’t trust easily is because his dad was killed by the man they saw as an uncle. CC was LITERALLY stabbed in the back and left to die. And mind you, right before that, he forgave Theo Adam and went to go get him some help.

I’m just thinking about how that must’ve shaped Billy as a person. Trying to stay kind and forgiving. Always willing to abide by “be good and good will follow”, but where did being good get his parents?

A sketch I was finally able to scan this morning. Done in my little 5"x8" sketchbook. Black Adam with his human/alias form, Theo (Teth) Adam. I got more images to upload later.

I cant tell what canon callbacks would hurt me worse reading in those “Black Adam decides to adopt Billy after learning his nemesis is a kid” stories

Because, one hand, Theo Adam and tangentially Black Adam in Billys mind being his parents literal murderer

Or, Billy’s personality and/or physical appearance reminding Adam of the nephew he murdered for sole control of the powers of Shazam back in the day

Either way it’s death related and both are hurting. It’s delicious but man is it painful

I miss Theo Adam because he literally killed Billy’s parents and that wasn’t even Adam and Cap’s main beef with each other
