Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. The Shazam/Captain Marvel villain Black Adam is associated with what fictional Middle Eastern country in the DC Universe?

Answer: Kahndaq

Black Adam first appeared in "The Marvel Family" #1, 1945, from Fawcett Comics. DC comics later published the Fawcett characters.

Much like his counterpart Shazam/Captain Marvel, Black Adam also uses the magical word "Shazam!" to transform. However, for Black Adam the letters stand for Egyptian gods: the stamina of Shu, the speed of Heru, the strength of Amon, the wisdom of Zehuti, the power of Aton, and the courage of Mehen.
2. Black Alice is a teenage hero who can temporarily borrow what type of powers?

Answer: Magic

Black Alice first appeared in "Birds of Prey" #76, 2005, from DC Comics.

While Black Alice borrows the powers of a character, the original character is powerless. She is not limited to spell casting; any magical enhancements such as strength, speed, or flight can also be used.
3. Black Bolt is the ruler of what fictional group of people (or aliens)?

Answer: Inhumans

Black Bolt first appeared in "Fantastic Four" #45, 1965, from Marvel Comics.

Black Bolt's power is activated whenever he talks, so he usually communicates non-verbally (i.e. via sign language or through an interpreter) to avoid destroying things.
4. Dinah Lance is Black Canary, one of the best martial artists in the world. What superpower does she have?

Answer: Canary Cry (sonics)

Black Canary first appeared in "Flash Comics" #86, 1947, from DC Comics.

A signature element of her costume is fishnet stockings (except for a jumpsuit period in the 1980s).
5. Felicia Hardy has been both an enemy and ally of Spider-Man, and sometimes even a romantic interest. A burglar with feline-themed gadgets, she sometimes has bad-luck powers as which comic book character?

Answer: Black Cat

Black Cat first appeared in "The Amazing Spider-Man" #194, 1979, from Marvel Comics.

Despite the similarities to Catwoman, creator Marv Wolfman denies basing his character on her. Instead, Black Cat was initially created as a Spider-Woman villain based on the 1949 cartoon "Bad Luck Blackie" (1949).
6. The Black Knight wields a magical, cursed sword crafted by Merlin from a meteorite. What is the name of this sword?

Answer: The Ebony Blade

The original Black Knight, Sir Percy of Scandia, and the Ebony Blade first appeared in "Black Knight" #1, 1955, from Marvel Comics.

The heroic Black Knight, Dane Whitman, first appeared in "The Avengers" #47, 1967. Whitman has sometimes used another sword, such as the Neural Sword or the Sword of Light, when the curse of the Ebony Blade became too much to wield.

Several others have taken on the costume of the Black Knight, and many of them have been villains, such as Whitman's uncle, Nathan Garrett, who first appeared in "Tales to Astonish" #52, 1964.
7. With a high-tech wetsuit, helmet, and submarine, the villain Black Manta is well-equipped to fight his nemesis. Who is this underwater hero?

Answer: Aquaman

Black Manta first appeared in "Aquaman" #35, 1967, from DC Comics.

Black Manta was briefly a human/manta hybrid, and at one point had gills. Usually, however, he uses technology to remain under water.
8. Black Panther is a superhero and king of the fictional African nation of Wakanda. Wakanda is famous for mining which fictional metal that absorbs sounds and vibrations?

Answer: Vibranium

Black Panther and Wakanda first appeared in "Fantastic Four" #52, 1966, from Marvel Comics.

Captain America's circular shield is made from a vibranium alloy, usually stated to be a mixture of vibranium and adamantium.
9. The Black Racer is an avatar of death. What does the Black Racer use to travel?

Answer: Skis

The Black Racer first appeared in "New Gods" #3, 1971, from DC Comics.

There is a Marvel Comics villain with the same name. She first appeared in "Captain America" #337, 1988, as a member of the Serpent Squad and Serpent Society.
10. Black Widow is a former spy turned S.H.I.E.L.D. agent and Avenger. Which country first trained her to be a spy?

Answer: Russia

Black Widow (Natalia "Natasha" Romanova) first appeared in "Tales of Suspense" #52, 1964, from Marvel Comics.

Black Widow was played by Scarlett Johansson in several Marvel Cinematic Universe films, starting with "Iron Man 2" in 2010.
