Character Corner - A Podcast On Your Favorite Comic Book Characters

%CODE1% On this Character Corner, we do our first solo episode on a villain. We talk about DC's Black Adam. Black Adam is such an interesting character because while a lot of what he does is wrong, the motives are something you can understand. Complexity like this makes a villain good.
