However, as more metahumans chose not to join the Justice League upon their capture, the Justice League was forced to create a rehabilitation center that would contain and re-educate them on the proper use of their abilities. This was called the 'Gulag'. Adam served as its warden to deal with the hard cases such as Von Bach, who tried to attack him but was immediately knocked down by Adam. Eventually the entire metahuman population of the Gulag revolted against their captors and Adam was killed in the process by Von Bach. Kingdom Come/Earth-22
