Adam Young

In one universe, the Antichrist was a young boy called Adam. Though not evil, he did almost cause the apocalypse by using his powers frivolously, but, with some help from Aziraphale, this was prevented from happening and Adam learned his lesson. When a living, breathing Sherlock Holmes appeared in his bookshop, Aziraphale briefly wondered whether Adam had been misusing his powers again, but it surfaced that the culprit was actually Jenny Everywhere. (PROSE: You've Been To Eden, I Perceive)

Behind the scenes

You've Been To Eden, I Perceive crosses over Jenny Everywhere with elements of Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman's Good Omens, although the continuity in which it takes place is not quite the setting of any of the official versions of the story, mixing and matching details from the book and the TV miniseries. In Good Omens, Adam is Adam Young, a young boy who is in actuality the son of Satan and prophesied Antichrist, but received a normal human upbringing due to a mix-up in the adoption process, and turned out as a decent and fundamentally human boy, although one possessing the power to make reality obey his whims. The character was portrayed by Adam Thomas Wright in the 2014 radio drama adaption, and Sam Taylor Buck in the 2019 live-action series.
