** When told that Adrianna's husband died, Black Adam takes the time to issue his condolences.

to:

** During his monologue on how to deal with one's enemies, Adrianna admonishes that she doesn't want Black Adam teaching Amon violence. [[ImplacableMan Adam]], surprisingly, apologizes... because he assumes she wants Amon's father (whom he hilariously assumes to be Karim, who's a total pushover at this point) to [[TeachHimAnger "teach him violence"]] and is defending his authority as a father. As powerful and ruthless as he's become, Adam still respects SacredHospitality and [[ProHumanTranshuman his fellow men]] (especially fellow fathers), and apologizes for overstepping his boundaries.

* Oddly enough, Superman's appearance to Black Adam isn't to issue a threat or a showdown -- it's to talk things over because he wants to ease the world's nerves over his sudden arrival. He also genuinely addresses him as "Black Adam", as opposed to Amanda Waller's sarcastic use of his name. Superman really is TheHeart of the DC Universe.

** Black Adam clearly sees his son in Amon Tomaz. While he's not exaclty friendly with Amon, he never gets hostile with him, merely lifting the boy and moving him to one side when he blocks Adam's path. Black Adam also goes out of his way to protect Amon when Intergang goes after him specifically and is visibly frustrated when he's unable to do right by the boy. Upon seeing that there's a good person hiding underneath that grim exterior, Amon encourages Black Adam to be more heroic.
