Injustice: Gods Among Us Summons Black Adam

Injustice: Gods Among Us will receive the stamina of Shu, the swiftness of Heru, the strength of Amon, the wisdom of Zehuti, the power of Aton, and the courage of Mehen, because Black Adam's coming to town!

Frankly, we can't wait to see him fight Billy Batson as Shazam. This once-evil-but-then-reformed superpowered being also rocks the lightning bolt on his chest, so we guess he'll have to go up against the Flash as well, just to see who wore it best.

The announcement for Black Adam's inclusion in the game as a playable character was sent out on Twitter, accompanied by the high-resolution screenshot you see above.

We've yet to see him in action, but we're looking forward to some gameplay videos and whether he'll be portrayed as a baddie or the Justice Society of America version of himself in the game. Judging from the dark look of the screenshot, we're betting it's the former.
