Who is Rama Kushna?

Rama Kushna is a powerful mystical deity who granted the murdered circus acrobat Boston Brand a second chance at existence as Deadman, binding his spirit to the living world until he could find his killer and fulfill a greater cosmic purpose.

A mysterious cosmic presence born in the pages of Strange Adventures #205 in 1967, Rama Kushna is one of DC's most intriguing Silver Age creations, brought into being by the legendary team of Arnold Drake and Carmine Infantino. This enigmatic entity has graced the DC universe across more than four decades, appearing alongside some of the publisher's greatest icons β€” Deadman, Batman, and Hawkman among them β€” in titles like Strange Adventures, The Brave and the Bold, and Wednesday Comics. Rare and select in their appearances, Rama Kushna carries the weight of cosmic significance that makes each encounter feel momentous, including at least one collector-recognized key issue. For fans who love the mystical, otherworldly corners of the DC universe, this is a figure well worth seeking out.
