The Anti-Hero’s Burden: Justice vs. Vengeance in Black Adam
The core of the film's narrative tension lies in the clash between the Justice Society of America (JSA) and Black Adam. The JSA, led by Hawkman, represents the Western ideal of "due process" and non-lethal intervention. In contrast, Black Adam represents a "protector" born from the oppressed people of Kahndaq, who view the JSA’s restraint as a form of privilege. To the people of Kahndaq, Black Adam’s lethal methods are not "evil"—they are a necessary response to decades of foreign occupation and criminal exploitation that the "heroes" ignored.
