Free Black Adam Coloring Pages: 30+ printable PDF pages featuring Black Adam across solo action portraits, the Teth Adam form, lightning and energy pages, the Black Adam logo, duo and battle pages with Shazam, crossover pages with Iron Man and Exodus, and pages referencing the 2022 DC film. All free, download PDF to print, or color online.
Black Adam’s costume inverts the usual superhero coloring logic. Where most heroes wear bright primary-colored suits with dark accents, Black Adam wears black with a single gold lightning bolt and trim. The black is not the background: it is the material that makes the gold impossible to ignore. Getting this right means keeping the black fully and evenly placed: any lightening or grey pulls energy away from the gold. The lightning bolt should be a clear, warm gold, and the black around it as deep as the medium allows.
The pages are divided into two types. Solo and action pages reward careful attention to the dark-field-and-gold-accent dynamic that defines the character’s design. Versus and duo pages with Shazam, Iron Man, and Exodus shift the focus to palette contrast between Black Adam’s dark design and his opponents’ very different visual registers. The simpler printable portrait pages suit a wide age range; the detailed lightning and battle pages give older fans more to work through.
These pages work well at home or as DC fan art. These are fan-made coloring pages and are not official, licensed, or endorsed by DC Comics, Warner Bros., or any rights holder of Black Adam. The crossover pages with Iron Man and Exodus are fan-made and are not affiliated with Marvel Comics, Disney, or any rights holder of those characters.

What’s Inside Black Adam Coloring Pages
Black Adam Solo and Action Pages
The majority of the set shows Black Adam alone across a range of poses and energy states: upright portrait compositions, action stances with lightning energy visible around the figure, and the specific Teth Adam form referencing his ancient Egyptian origins.
Coloring Black Adam’s costume: the costume is built on two elements: deep black fabric and warm gold accents. The black should be applied fully and evenly, as dark as the medium allows, without any grey variation that would soften its intensity. The gold lightning bolt on the chest and any gold trim at the collar and cape edges should be a warm, slightly amber gold rather than a pale or cool yellow: the warmth of the gold reads as energy against the cold depth of the black. On the Angry Black Adam and Strong Black Adam pages, the expression and musculature carry the power; the costume stays in the same deep black and warm gold regardless of how intense the pose becomes.
Lightning and Energy Pages
Several pages emphasize the magical lightning that defines Black Adam’s power: Black Adam Lightning and pages showing crackling energy around the figure.
Coloring lightning and energy: Black Adam’s lightning is magical rather than electrical, tied to the power of the wizard Shazam. On the page, it should read as white-gold rather than pure electric blue: start with white at the brightest center of each lightning bolt or arc, transitioning outward through pale gold and warm yellow before fading into the surrounding darkness. The lightning gains its impact from the dark field around it: the deeper the black surrounding the energy, the more the lightning seems to glow from within rather than sitting on top of the page.
Black Adam Logo Page
The Black Adam logo page shows the character’s distinctive stylized lightning bolt symbol used in marketing and the 2022 film.
Coloring the logo: the logo is essentially the costume’s dynamic distilled to a single shape. A warm amber-gold for the bolt against a deep black background maximizes its graphic impact. If a white or light background is present instead, add a thin dark border around the bolt to preserve the contrast the symbol depends on.
Black Adam and Shazam Pages
Three pages pair Black Adam with Shazam: Shazam with Black Adam, Black Adam with Shazam, and Black Adam and Shazam. These pages show the two characters who share the same magical origin but stand on opposite sides of the hero-villain line.
Coloring Black Adam and Shazam together: Shazam wears a red costume with a gold lightning bolt, white trim, and a white cape. The contrast with Black Adam is immediate and deliberate: red versus black, warm versus cool, the cheerful bright hero against the wrathful dark anti-hero. On any shared page, keep both costumes at their full intensity: Shazam’s red vivid and saturated, Black Adam’s black as deep and even as possible. The visual tension between the two palettes is the design logic of the pairing.
Crossover Pages
Two pages show Black Adam in fan-made crossover compositions: Black Adam vs Iron Man and Exodus vs Black Adam.
Coloring the crossover pages: on the Black Adam versus Iron Man page, both characters share gold in their design, but in completely different registers. Iron Man’s gold is warm metallic armor with a reflective surface and red as the primary color. Black Adam’s gold is a flat accent on deep black. Keep each character’s own color logic intact: Iron Man’s red-and-gold armor with its metallic highlights, Black Adam’s deep black with flat warm-gold accent. The visual interest of the page comes from two very different uses of gold in the same composition. On the Exodus versus Black Adam page, apply Exodus’s Marvel palette in his specific colors and keep Black Adam in his standard deep black and warm gold.
2022 Film and Dwayne Johnson Pages
Two pages reference the 2022 Black Adam film, and one page is titled Dwayne Johnson as Black Adam, referencing the actor who portrayed the character in that film.
Coloring the film pages: the 2022 film version of Black Adam stays close to the comics design: deep black costume, gold accents, intense expression. The film pages may have slightly more detailed musculature or costume texture detail than the comics-style pages. Approach the Dwayne Johnson as Black Adam page as a Black Adam character page: color the costume in the character’s established palette. These are fan-made coloring pages and are not affiliated with Dwayne Johnson, DC Comics, Warner Bros., or any rights holder of the Black Adam film.
Printable PDF and Online Black Adam Coloring Pages
Every design comes in two ways: a printable PDF for paper, or the same artwork colored on screen.
Using both formats: print the PDF when you want a clean sheet for markers, fine-liners, or colored pencils, and use the on-screen version when there is no printer nearby. The PDF holds the character’s detailed costume linework and lightning energy detail cleanly on standard letter or A4 paper.
What These Pages Do
Black Adam’s costume demonstrates one principle: a single vivid accent achieves its maximum luminosity through the depth of darkness surrounding it, not through its own intensity. The gold lightning bolt reads as electrifying because the black around it is unrelenting. Working through these pages builds what might be called dark-field accent coloring: the discipline of applying deep, even darkness not as a background to be gotten through but as the active visual force that makes the accent glow. Black Adam’s pages reverse the usual priority: the challenge is the black, and the gold takes care of itself once the black is right. That principle transfers to any illustration involving dramatic backlighting, night scenes, or silhouette compositions where one element must read as a light source against surrounding darkness. From here, miscellaneous coloring pages are the parent hub, and Shazam coloring pages and Batman coloring pages offer the closest DC design parallels.
The American Art Therapy Association identifies the creative engagement with morally complex characters. These characters occupy the grey area between heroism and villainy, offering a specific kind of imaginative and emotional processing distinct from purely heroic or purely villainous imagery. Black Adam, an anti-hero whose methods are extreme but whose motivations are rooted in the protection of his ancient homeland, invites that kind of nuanced engagement: coloring him is not as simple as coloring a straightforward hero or villain, and the specific quality of attention his moral complexity invites differs from the simpler creative experience of most superhero coloring. The American Academy of Pediatrics supports creative activities that engage older children and teens with themes of moral complexity and power, and Black Adam’s pages provide a focused, screen-free context for that kind of imaginative engagement with a character whose identity resists simple categorization.
How to Color Black Adam Coloring Pages
These steps work for any page in the set, from a solo portrait to the full battle and crossover pages.
Apply the black costume fully and evenly before placing any gold. The visual impact of the gold lightning bolt depends entirely on the depth and evenness of the black around it. Fill the costume black, working into every corner of the fabric areas, before touching the gold. Any grey variation or uneven coverage in the black weakens the gold’s luminosity.
Use warm amber-gold rather than pale yellow for the lightning bolt and trim. The gold on Black Adam’s costume is a warm, slightly amber gold that reads as energy rather than decoration. A pale or cool yellow loses the power register. A warm amber-gold next to deep black reads as electrifying; a pale yellow next to deep black reads as a badge rather than a lightning bolt.
On the lightning and energy pages, work outward from white at the center. The brightest point of any lightning arc or bolt is its core: start with white or near-white at the center of each lightning element, then transition outward through pale gold and warm yellow as the arc fades into the surrounding darkness. This center-to-edge transition is what makes lightning read as a light source rather than a decorative shape.
On Shazam duo pages, keep both costumes at full intensity. The visual power of the Black Adam and Shazam pairing depends on the gap between Shazam’s vivid red and Black Adam’s deep black. Softening either toward a middle tone loses the contrast that makes the pairing visually charged. Hold Shazam’s red at full warm saturation and Black Adam’s black at maximum depth simultaneously.
On the Iron Man crossover page, distinguish the two characters’ uses of gold. Iron Man’s gold is metallic armor with warm reflective highlights and red as the dominant color. Black Adam’s gold is a flat, warm accent on deep black. Give Iron Man’s gold a slight reflective variation, lighter on raised surfaces and darker in the recessed panel lines, while keeping Black Adam’s gold flat and vivid. Two different golds for two different design logics.

FAQ About Black Adam Coloring Pages
Are these Black Adam coloring pages free, and can I color them online?
Yes. Every page is free, with no account, email, or payment required. Download the PDF to print at home, or color the design on screen in the browser.
Which characters and pages are included?
The set features Black Adam across solo portraits, action and lightning pages, a logo page, duo pages with Shazam, crossover battle pages with Iron Man and Exodus, and pages referencing the 2022 film, including one referencing the actor who portrayed him.
Who is Black Adam?
Black Adam is a DC Comics character, originally introduced as a villain and later reimagined as an anti-hero. He is the ancient Egyptian champion Teth Adam, empowered by the wizard Shazam with magical lightning-based abilities. The 2022 film Black Adam brought the character to wider attention. You can read more about Black Adam on Wikipedia.
What colors should I use for Black Adam’s costume?
Black Adam’s costume is deep black with a warm amber-gold lightning bolt on the chest and gold trim at the collar and cape edges. Apply the black as fully and evenly as possible, then place the warm amber-gold accent. Avoid grey variations in the black and avoid pale or cool yellow for the gold: warm amber-gold next to deep black reads as the character’s magical lightning energy.
What makes the Shazam and Black Adam pairing visually distinctive?
Shazam wears a red costume with a gold lightning bolt and white trim: warm, vivid, and heroic. Black Adam wears a black costume with the same lightning bolt symbol in gold: dark, intense, and anti-heroic. The same symbol appears on both costumes but communicates completely different things through the surrounding palette. On duo pages, holding both costumes at their maximum intensity makes the contrast work.
How should I color the lightning on the energy pages?
Work from the center of each lightning arc outward: white or near-white at the brightest core, transitioning through pale gold and warm yellow as the arc extends, fading into the black around it. This center-to-edge transition makes the lightning read as a genuine light source within the composition.
Are the crossover pages official DC and Marvel content?
