What is the connection between "Adam One" in the Wanted comic book series and the Biblical Adam (from the Book of Genesis)? Is Adam One intended to be the actual Biblical first human? Adam One (also known as "Adam-One") is identified as the world's oldest man. But this doesn't mean he is the first man described in the Bible.
From what we know, we believe "Adam-One" is not the Biblical Adam, but he was named for him.
Adam One is a member of the Council of Five, a body of the world's leading super-villains, who have divided rule of the world among themselves. Adam One controls all of Africa.
