A violent magical rupture beneath Kahndaq awakens a forgotten power tied to the ancient Council of Wizards. The eruption destabilizes the region and sends shockwaves across the world, drawing the attention of Black Adam, who senses that the fractured magic could restore his full divine potential — or destroy everything. His search for a way to control it leads him to a single missing component: a Kryptonian capable of surviving the magic’s raw force. Meanwhile, Clark Kent has settled into a fragile rhythm of heroism and family life with Lois Lane and young Jon Kent, whose innocence becomes Clark’s emotional anchor. But their peace shatters when a cosmic rift tears open above the Indian Ocean. From it falls Kara Zor‑El, disoriented, traumatized, and infused with unstable magical residue from her escape through the Phantom Zone. Her arrival becomes a beacon. Black Adam descends upon her, believing she is the key to stabilizing the ancient power. Superman intervenes, but Adam’s magic — amplified by the ruptured seal — overwhelms him. Kara tries to fight, but the corrupted energy inside her reacts violently, allowing Adam to extract a fragment of the magic and transform into a hybrid of divine sorcery and Kryptonian resonance.
