Who is Ibis?

Ibis the Invincible is an ancient Egyptian prince who slumbered for thousands of years before awakening in the modern world, wielding the Ibistick — a powerful magic wand — to battle evil. He debuted in Fawcett's Whiz Comics #2 in 1940.

Born in the pages of Whiz Comics #2 in 1940, Ibis is one of the true Golden Age originals — a Fawcett Comics conjurer whose mystical presence graced the very same landmark debut issue that introduced Captain Marvel to the world. That's extraordinary company to keep, and Ibis has shared adventures across those storied Fawcett pages with Billy Batson, Spy Smasher, and Alan Armstrong, placing this character squarely at the heart of one of comics' most beloved eras. With seven key-issue appearances to their name and a publishing footprint stretching an remarkable 84 years from 1940 all the way to 2024, Ibis is far more than a curiosity — this is a character with genuine staying power and collector significance. For anyone exploring the rich, imaginative world of Golden Age comics, Ibis is an essential piece of the puzzle.
