One fan even went as far to proclaim Doctor Fate as “the best of the Black Adam trailer.”

Doctor Fate is one of the most iconic characters in DC history, often met with praise and reverence from his fellow superhero counterparts. The major similarities between the comic book character and its live adaptation are clearly swaying fans in a very positive direction. This is especially important as some fans have expressed their skepticism about Dwayne Johnson’s ability to properly portray the lead anithero accurately.

There are many other superhero appearances in Black Adam, including Hawkman, Cyclone, and Atom Smasher, but Doctor Fate clearly takes the role of MVP from the fans. The upcoming film is schedule to be released on Oct. 21 this year, and hopefully, the fans will get more than what they’ve anticipated from the powerful sorcerer.
