For some, the wait for Dwayne Johnson’s premiere as the protector of Kahndaq has felt like an eternity. Whispers about him taking on the titular role of Black Adam can be tracked all the way back to SDCC 2007, and now we’re about 10 months from the film’s premiere. But for me, the information that really piqued my interest regarding the
