ComicBook/BlackAdam got his powers from another mystical scarab, [[{{Mummy}} all the mummies that pop up because of necklaces and jewels]], oh and let's not forget [[Franchise/YuGiOh the artifact that makes you want to play card games for the rest of your life.]] And to get all this crap, you had to pass insurmountable odds in Franchise/IndianaJones-esque fashion and more than one person would die along the way. It seems to me that Ancient Egypt was a freakin' death trap! Screw archeology! Ever think that maybe there was a reason this crap was buried?!"''
