Inking I forgot to scan. Black Adam's design was originally inspired by Dracula. I kind of wanted to have that come across in the drawing. Pen and ink.

My Hero Superman AU; Oneshot Special, Superboy’s Final Exam Feat. Special Guests

At one of UA’s Many Training Grounds;

Nezu(addressing all the students of UA in a viewing room): Today we have something special lined up for everyone.

Nezu: Instead of your normal classes, we will instead be conducting a special evaluation of a very special student, and you have all been welcomed to watch.

Ochaco(holding Eri, who is wearing a Superboy jacket her grandmother made her, in her lap): It’s Izu-kun, isn’t it?

Bakugo(annoyed): LIKE HELL ITS THE NE-

Nezu(interrupting him with a smile): EXACTLY MS. URARAKA!!!

Bakugo(whining like a little kid): GODDAMNIT!!!

Nezu(explaining to the confused students): Mr. Midoriya has been revealed to the world as the son of Superman, a man whose power many have regarded as being equal or greater than Allmight’s own!

Nezu(as students begin murmuring amongst themselves): Today, for his final exam, we decided to have him face off against a select group of pro-heroes.

Meanwhile in the Fake City;

Superboy(standing at the entrance in his costume): Well, this ought to be interesting, I might even have the chance to see how far I’ve come!

Nezu(over the speakers): The exam begins now!

Izuku immediately starts flying into the fake city and begins scanning the city with his x-ray and microscopic visions, and his super-hearing looking for the Pros he’ll have to fight.

While flying he’s suddenly hit with a barrage of hard feathers from behind, causing him to stop and turn around while hovering in mid-air to find the cause. He finds himself face to face with a blond man with birds wings. This is the Pro-hero, Hawks.

Superboy(with excitement in his voice): Oh my god, you’re Hawks! YOU’RE IN THE TOP 5!

Hawks(smirking): It’s nice to be recognized by an up and coming young hero.

Hawks(getting serious): But don’t forget, this is still an exam, you can fanboy afterwards.

Superboy(shrugging his shoulders): If you say so.

Superboy immediately moves faster than Hawks can react and tackles him out of the sky. He sends them both hurtling through multiple buildings before they end up in a simulated demolition zone. Shortly after they land, the wood hero, Kamui Woods, arrives.

Kamui(speaking into his comms as he heads into the building): They’re in the demolition site, I’m heading in to give Hawks backup.

Mirku(making her way there): NOT WITHOUT ME YOU’RE NOT!!! I WANT A SHOT AT HIM!!!

Kamui(at the entrance): Don’t bother Mirku, Hawks and I should be enough to subdue him before you and the others get here.

Meanwhile in the Observation Room with the students and Principal of UA, Mount Lady and Endeavor hear Kamui’s comment and groan to themselves.

Mt Lady(facepalming): He’s an idiot.

Endeavor(standing next to her and nodding his head): Agreed.

Kendo(turning to her confused): Why?

Mt Lady(explaining): Unlike the other heroes taking part, I actually looked up to Superman when he was around.

Mt Lady(as Kamui Woods enters the building): So I know that one of his abilities is the perfect counter to Kamui’s quirk…

Kamui Woods then spots two glowing red dots in the darkness. He realizes all too late that the “dots” are Superboy’s glowing eyes. He attempts to create a shield of wood, only for two red hot beams of fire to shoot out of Superboy’s eyes, burning his makeshift shield.

Mt Lady(as the beam is shown flying out of the building): Heat Vision.

As Mirku and other pros arrive, they see the occasional beam of heat vision shooting out, branches of wood sprouting out, and some of Hawks’ feathers flying out some windows. This continues until both Kamui and Hawks are thrown through a wall and land on top of the startled Present Mic.

A blue and red blur then shoots out of the building grabbing Mirku by her collar.

Superboy(holding her up with a smirk): So, what can you do?

Mirku attempts to kick him in the face, only to have no affect whatsoever.

Mirku(stunned): How?!

Kamui(launching branches of wood towards them): LACQUERED CHAIN PRISON!!!

Superboy throws Mirku aside and begins batting the branches aside until they start pushing him back and manage to ensnare him. Eraserhead then stares at him with his quirk in an attempt to keep Izuku contained.

Superboy(while looking amused): Tree branches really?

Superboy(while looking at them with his eyes glowing, showing that Erasure has no effect): You’re funny.

Superboy then begins flexing and breaking the branches holding him, forcing the heroes to take cover and hide as he breaks free. Superboy then looks around and finds Eraserhead hiding behind some rubble with his x-ray vision.

Superboy: You know I can see you, right?

Eraserhead(startled as Superboy appears right in front of him): DAMNIT!!!

Eraserhead attempts to use his scarf to pull himself up a nearby construction site, only for Superboy to intercept the end of the scarf and burn it off, leaving it significantly shortened. He then uses his ice-breath trap Eraserhead in place, before leaving to make short work of the other heroes.

Eraserhead(thinking to himself): My quirk didn’t have any effect on him! How is that possible?!

Endeavor(smirking, thinking): He’s just as strong as you were Hisashi…

Endeavor(seeing Izuku easily dispatch the rest of the other pros): And it seems he also got Inko’s warrior’s intuition as well.

Mt Lady(grinning): He really is the next Man of Steel.

Bakugo(annoyed): Why do people keep calling him that?!

Mt Lady(turning to him, annoyed): Superman was called the “Man of Steel”, not just because he was seemingly invincible, but because he was also unbending when it came to protecting everyone and letting them know that they mattered.

Bakugo(scoffing): What a load of-

Endeavor(annoyed): I’d shut your mouth boy! Before it gets you in trouble.

Bakugo turns to the pro about to retort when he finds himself put to sleep by Midnight, who was also starting to get annoyed by his unjustified arrogance.

Momo(looking at the screen, seeing an object moving quickly towards Izuku, as he was finishing securing the pros): What’s that?

Endeavor(looking at the object in annoyance): THAT would be the muscle-bound idiot, All Might.

Endeavor(starts grinning): This’ll be good.

Mt Lady(getting excited): This is gonna be awesome! It’s basically All Might vs Superman!

Eri(getting excited in her mother, Ochaco’s arms): GO PAPA!!!

The girls(and some boys) of both 1-A and 1-B, along with Midnight and Mt Lady, feel their hearts clench from the cuteness of they little girl they just met cheering for her adopted father.

With Superboy, he had just finished restraining Mirku against a safety railing in the construction site by bending the rails around her arms and legs in a way that wouldn’t cut off the flow of blood. He starts hovering back down to ground level, when an object falls out of the sky, leaving a giant impact crater in front of him.

The dust from the impact clears to reveal All Might.

All Might(flexing): I AM HERE! TO TEST YOU!!!

Superboy(getting ready): Bring it! I want to actually push myself to get better!

All Might(thinking to himself): That means he was able to restrain everyone without actually pushing himself! No one should be that powerful, unless…

All Might(eyes widen when he jumps to the wrong conclusion): Could he really be working for All for One? Impossible!

All Might(getting into a fighting stance): I’ll just have to ask him about his new powers later.

All Might then jumps towards Superboy, who swiftly moves aside letting the force of All Might’s punch pass him and nearly blow the captured pros away.

Superboy(worried): Better be careful, or we could hurt someone.

All Might(addressing him): Just focus on the now, treat me like you would a villain!

Superboy(hesitant): If you say so.

Superboy flies in and grabs All Might by face, pushing into the ground as he flies forward, using All Might’s head to create a trench in the road of the fake city. All Might lands a solid blow to Superboy’s stomach, causing his hold to loosen, allowing All Might to reverse their positions and grab Superboy by his head.

He then forces Superboy into the ground, a hand holding his face over one of his eyes, applying more force over time. While he is attempting to hold the Teen of Steel down, he realizes the teen’s visible eye start glowing, and attempts to point his head away from him, thinking it to be heat vision. Instead, a nearby lamp post is telekinetically pulled out of its place and hits him in the back of the head, causing him to lose his hold on the teen.

Superboy recovers from the hold, and they both charge at each other and begin hitting each other with enough force to shatter the windows around with every punch.

All Might(thinking): How could he get this much power from One for All?

All Might(pushing Superboy back, and preparing his strongest attack): I have to learn what he figured out about the quirk, there might even be a way to prolong my time before he’ll be forced to face All for One!

All Might: Prepare yourself, Young Midoriya!

All Might(throwing punch): UNITED STATES OF SM-

However as soon the punch is thrown, it is stopped cold as the teen catches it in his hand and the resulting wind blows the teen’s cape back and causes nearby cars around them to go flying. But the teen himself is unbothered, without so much as a sign that he is struggling to hold back the punch, shocking everyone watching.

Superboy uses this moment of shock to telekinetically push his mentor back, but before they can continue their battle…A bolt of lightning strikes the ground between them, kicking up both dust and smoke, from which an unknown voice calls out.

???: You truly are their son, to be able to stand against this…mockery of a warrior.

The smoke clears to reveal a tan man in black armored suit, with a black cape, and golden bracer, boots and belt. What catches the eye most about this mystery man is the lightning bolt emblem on his chest, glowing with power.

All Might(standing back up): I don’t know who you are, but this doesn’t concern you!

???(turning to face him): When it comes to properly testing Earth’s future champion, it does.

???(turning back to Izuku): Thus Black Adam, Earth’s Mightiest Mortal, has come to properly test the “Son of Superman”!

All Might(preparing a punch): As if I’d allow it!

All Might then launches himself at this “Black Adam” and aims his punch right at his head. Only for the punch to stop dead with a crack, and the resulting winds merely pushing the man’s cape and attached hood back, without a single scratch on his face.

All Might recoils from the pain in his hand as he realizes that he broke it himself when he threw the punch.

Black Adam(scoffs): Is this truly the best you so called “heroes” can muster?

Black Adam(raising his own fist): Pathetic.

He then throws his own punch, and despite All Might’s attempt to block it, he is sent flying backwards, carving out a mile-long trench, surprising everyone.

Bakugo(having just woken up and seeing his idol be beaten back with ONE hit): Impossible…

Superboy(flying towards his mentor with worry): ALL MIGHT!!!

As he flies towards his downed mentor, a glowing ankh appears before the downed hero, and in a flash of light he disappears, only to reappear in the observation room with everyone else, along with the other pros testing Superboy.

Mirku(after recovering from his he teleport): What was that? Is this a villain attack?!?!

???: Calm yourselves, “heroes”!

With another flash of light, a man in a blue costume with a golden belt and golden gloves boots and cape appear before them, but catches the attention of many is the golden helmet he wears, this is the Silver Age hero, Dr Fate!

Nezu(smiling): Nelson, my old friend! What brings you here?

Dr Fate(sighing): I’m here to help ensure that Adam doesn’t hurt anyone in his “assessment”.

Mt Lady(eyes widening in realization): Wait, that’s THE Black Adam?!?!

Hawks(recovering, and stopping in the middle of checking an unconscious Eraserhead): Who?

Mt Lady(turning to him): He was the original Anti-Hero from the country of Khandaq. His power has been compared to gods, he’s essentially the original Superman!

Mt Lady(pointing at Fate): He worked alongside Dr Fate and the Justice Society!

All Might(forcing himself up with a fit of coughs): I have to get back out there!

Dr Fate(making glyphs to keep him in place): YOU will do no more Toshinori Yagi!

Toshinori(shocked): How?

Dr Fate(looking him dead in the eyes): You have pushed yourself past your limit, any more and you may die, especially against Adam.

Dr Fate(watching smoke start to come off of All Might): And now one of your greatest secrets is coming to light as a result.

Dr Fate(turning to all the students): Behold students, the consequences of pushing your quirk factors TOO FAR!

As the smoke clears, the students are revealed to All Might’s true form, and they start murmuring amongst themselves.

Ochaco(worried): What about Izu-kun?! Someone needs to help him!

Dr Fate(turning to her and a worried Eri): I am sorry young Ochaco, but for the events that are about to occur…

Dr Fate(as Superboy and Black Adam are shown staring each other down): No mere mortal can hope to interfere…

Nezu(over the intercoms): Midoriya, your objective has changed!

Nezu: You must now prove your worth to Black Adam, Earth’s Mightiest Mortal!

Nezu: Let this duel of the gods…

Nezu: BEGIN!!!

(Cue “Strongest Alive” by Brandon Yates)

Out of the shadows they rise!

As soon as the signal is given, the two demigods race at each other and land devastating right hooks that result in the building around them being reduced to rubble after being knocked over! They push through and begin engaging each other in a clash of both speed and strength, both only appearing as blurs of black and gold, and red and blue respectively.

Forces of Darkness Consuming our Lives!

Mt Lady(excited): HELL YEAH!!! SHOW HIM WHAT YOU GOT SUPERBOY!!!

Eri(cheering for her father): GO PAPA!!!

Ochaco: Be careful Izuku…

Superboy(thinking to himself): I can actually feel my muscles aching! THIS IS INCREDIBLE!!!

With all the faith placed in me by the heroes of the past!

The teen breaks their high speed battle by dodging a super sonic punch, and grabbing his opponent by their cape and swinging them into the construction site. As Black Adam gets back up, he is immediately smacked across the face by a steel beam. Izuku then swings the beam in his hands as if it were a staff, with the grace his mother taught him, landing multiple hits.

I find the strength to carve my own path!

Kendo(noticing his proficiency): Those hits, he’s not swinging wildly, he actually knows how to use a staff!

Eri(speaking up): Grandma Inko taught him how.

As the nearby students who heard this are left stunned, the rest turn their attention back to the monitors, just in time to see the steel beam break upon Adam’s face. Adam recovers quickly, and unleash a magical bolt of lightning at Izuku, knocking him through several buildings with a slight sting.

I~! Fight~! To be the Strongest Alive~!

Superboy(thinking): I actually felt that! That means this guy’s lightning is magic based!

Superboy(dodging another bolt): I have to make sure they don’t hit me.

I~! (won't ever give up the) Fight~! (I'm always gonna strive) To be the strongest alive~!

However, as Superboy begins dodging the bolts of lightning being shot at him, he makes a quick discovery.

Superboy: He’s keeping me at bay! I can’t get close enough to land a hit!

Superboy(as his eyes start glowing): Well I have my own ranged options to!

Izuku fires a beam of heat vision which is countered by Adam using his lightning. However, while the two struggle to overpower the other, Adam doesn’t notice the two buildings behind him being lifted up and thrown at him from either side until it’s too late.

Doesn't matter time or place, Or if hope has been erased, You will see this smile on my face!

The buildings collide on either side of Adam, only for him to reduce them to dust in a burst of lightning, before tackling Izuku out of the air, and through several buildings, causing the final building to collapse on top of them both.

If you find you're losing faith, Or you feel you've lost your way!

Adam is suddenly sent flying from the rubble, with Izuku quickly flying after him to land a punch that could easily annihilate an entire mountain.

Just rely on me to save the day!

The entire school felt the force of Izuku’s punch connecting with its target and are left stunned by it. Especially when he follows up with a devastating spike to the ground that feels like an earthquake!

If you're looking for someone to save you? I'm here now, it's all alright!

Toshinori is left speechless, as not he could have ever hoped to casually match that level of power. Even in his prime he would have to push himself to keep pace with the two!

Dr Fate(speaking to him via telepathy): Calm yourself Yagi, you did your best as the pillar of peace.

Toshinori(turning to him): How?!

Dr Fate: There are other powers much stronger than HIS. Rest assured, the boy DOES NOT work for him, he’s fate is utterly binding.

Dr Fate(turning back to the fight as Izuku and Adam begin another round of speed blitzes): Like your predecessor before you, he achieved this strength by finding something special to protect.

If you're searching for some kind of breakthrough

Toshinori realizes just what the Silver Age hero meant and looks towards Ochaco and the little girl in her arms.

Dr Fate(informing him): He’d move planets to give them the happiness they deserve.

I promise to be that light!

From inside of One for All, the vestige of Nana Shimura is cheering her grandson on.

Nana: YEAH!!! TAKE HIM DOWN KID!!!

Daigoro(sweat dropping): You know he can’t hear you, right?

Nana(turning to him annoyed): I’M A COPY OF THE ORIGINAL DEAD NANA SHIMURA, JUST LET ME CHEER ON MY GRANDSON GODDAMNIT!!!

Out of the shadows they rise! Forces of evil aim for our demise! I'm digging deep to that power I hold inside!

Black Adam(charging his lightning into his fist): My power equals yours!

Superboy(preparing his next punch): NO ONE’S DOES!!!

The charge at other, and when their punches connect, a shockwave is produced that topples the buildings around them, kicking up dust. Eventually, a figure is sent flying from the dust.

I'm the strongest alive!

The figure is revealed to be Adam, as Izuku takes off after him to deliver a series of punches, each pushing his opponent further and further back!

Doesn't matter time or place, Or if hope has been erased, You will see this smile on my face!

Superboy(with each punch thrown): With every step, an earthquake! With every breath…

Superboy(delivering a double handed spike into the ground): I COULD CREATE A HURRICANE!!!

If you find you're losing faith, Or you feel you've lost your way, Just rely on me to save the day!

Black Adam takes a moment to recover from the final hit, and turns to Teen hero.

Black Adam: Why?

Superboy(stopping his advance, confused): Why what?

If you're looking for someone to save you~

Black Adam(elaborating): Why do you protect them?

The question confuses all who heard it, until Adam continues.

Black Adam: If we wield power comparable to gods, does that not make us gods ourselves?

Black Adam: Yet instead of ruling over them as such, you restrain yourself to their level, why?

I'm here now, it's all alright~

Black Adam: You’ve seen how quick they are to resort to violence, yet you still wish to be their champion?

If you're searching for some kind of breakthrough~

Those listening begin wondering much the same. Why would some with such power choose to limit themselves instead of forcing their rule over any who stand in their way? Izuku then gives his answer.

Superboy(thinking about Bakugo and his old posse): Because I know they can be better. I witnessed the flaws in today’s society firsthand. I know that I could easily burn this world down for all the pain it caused me.

Superboy(thinking about Ochaco and Eri): But I don’t, because I’ve also seen the kindness within it. It’s a small spark, but it burns with a comforting warmth, THAT is what I’m protecting. They can be better, they just need someone to show them.

I promise to be that light!

Superboy(looking Adam in the eyes): Being “good” will always be hard, but “bad” is just too easy. I hope that one day, we can all live in a world where we realize that we’re all connected by the future.

Superboy(looking up at the sky): We all share the same tomorrow.

Everyone listening is left stunned, especially Bakugo, and some are motivated by his honest answer. Toshinori realizes just how much his successor reminds him of his master. Nezu smiles at Izuku’s final statement, glad that he shares his father’s view of the world, and Fate is glad that he has overcome the first of many obstacles in his path to become Earth’s Champion.

Black Adam(impressed): Very well, you have passed my test.

Black Adam(turning around): But before I take my leave, tell me…

Black Adam(looking over his shoulder): What is the name of the son of Kal-El? Who is the son of the “Star Child”?

Izuku is left stunned that he knew about his father’s birth name and meaning behind it. But he soon grins as he remembers the name his father gave to reflect his heritage.

Superboy(honestly): I am Jon-El, the “Hopeful Child”!

If you’re looking for someone to save you~

Black Adam(smirking): Truly, a fitting name for a child of the “House of Hope”.

Nezu(as Black Adam takes off before the pros could chase after him): Izuku Midoriya, it pleases me to announce that you have passed your exam with flying colors!

Eraserhead(regaining consciousness, confused): What’d I miss?

Mt Lady(in the background): THAT WAS AWESOME!!!

Ochaco(running out to her boyfriend, with their daughter still in her arms): IZU-KUN!!!

Dr Fate(to Toshinori, voiceover): Your time as a symbol will soon come to an end that is true, but you’ll live and be proud of the new Golden Age he’ll help bring to pass. Do not doubt yourself young man, for you have made the right choice, just ask his grandmother, Chiyo Shuzenji.

Izuku hugs them both Ochaco and Eri with a wide smile on his face as everything starts fading to black until the golden “S” on Izuku’s cape is all that is seen.

I’m here now, IT’S ALL ALRIGHT!

[itsdeanwinchester]

unpopular opinion but black adam was pretty entertaining actually

[mammoneythegreat]

I just watched black adam and FUCK it was so good

[strangeflashholmes221]

[1-800-fantasy]

Listen up James Gunn and Peter Safran…this is outta hand😭😭😭

first y’all wanna dangle in front of my face about my pookie, my main man Henry Cavill (who recently lost his role of Geralt) returning as Superman (when it was originally snatched from him) and put him in the new Black Adam movie, JUST TO TAKE HIM BACK OUT OF THE DC UNIVERSE

Y’all had me excited bout Wonder Woman 3 but NOOOOOOOOOO CANT HAVE THAT because “we’re busy figuring out how to rework DC's cohort of superheroes for the new era.” JUST KEEP IT THE SAME PLEASE IM BEGGING YOU

y’all are taking Dwayne Johnson out of his new role that he worked for because you want to rewrite everything. i appreciate wanting to start fresh but like i feel like we are taking steps backwards by taking out some very important people for important roles. this could be an amazing era for the DC Universe and fans but i feel like now i’m just disappointed as a whole. ig we will see what the future holds-

thank you for listening and have a lovely day and a happy new year🤗🤗

[jedinightsister]

[ratleyland]

Very entertaining indeed... but not spectacular!

It's your typical Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson type of movie... but with a superhero twist to it.

[jennylovelyheart]

Was Black adam actually good? I wanna see it

Honestly yes it was.

I really don't like DC movies, I'm not really a fan. I only like one movie from DC but that's it and this movie caught me by surprise because it was good! You could tell Dwayne poured his entire heart into this character. So for me yes it was good!!

[tyrin1350]

Thanks to marcmart.il (marcos Martinez)

For drawing my shazam/black adam sona along with my friend’s

[naughtygirl286]

Yes with our viewing of Black Adam there was collectable goodies!! They had cups and buckets of course but…I did not get these when we went to see Black Adam we actually picked them up the previous week when we went to see Prey for the Devil. I just didn't want to post them until we actually seen Black Adam so anyway..

The buckets again were metal and embossed/stamped out ones that we gotten before. The Black Adam bucket is very similar to the set we got when we went to see The Batman. on the Front you can see it clearly that its his chest with the tarnished lighting bolt and on the opposite side (back) It is the movies title logo which says again “Black Adam” its a really nice bucket all these metal ones have been pretty nice.

Now as for the cups are the usual plastic cups but this is one of the bigger ones its like 44oz which is like over a Liter. on its front it has the kinda silhouette type of image of Black Adam that that was every where and on the back it just has the movies title “Black Adam” but with these there was no toppers which was kind of a shame being you had a bunch of characters to choose from but it is just a plain cover on it They didn’t have anything for the movie so we just got our usual cup and bucket

[vicstwashington]

I’m... Not sure about this. 

[magpie-blues]

I wanted to reblog the post I found about this but I can’t find it but it’s ok I’ll improvise

So like it was a picture of a tweet abt someone talking abt how people can just tell the difference between a ‘good movie’ and a ‘bad movie’ when like 90% of the time they just walk out of the theater and they’re like ‘I had fun watching that movie’

Like

That’s just me. Well, there are exceptions but please tell me I’m not the only one. Like, I went and watched DC Black Adam right? You know, with Dwayne Johnson, and I was baffled because people were like ‘that movie sucked wtf’

And I’m just sitting there like ‘I had fun watching that movie’ and then didn’t go into further analysis about it. I just enjoyed and forgot to critique, is that what you’re supposed to do or do I zone out to much. I seem to turn off my brain when watching a movie and just let the little monkey up there clap it’s lil symbols and giggle and it gives me serotonin.
