All-Star Comics #5
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeA golden moon illuminates a nighttime street scene on Howard Purcell's cover, where the caped Sandman, a red-suited Hour-Man, and the lightning-bolt-emblazoned Flash square off against a pair of scrappy street thugs — with a fire hydrant standing as an unlikely witness to the brawl. This June–July 1941 issue promises a complete book-length Justice Society adventure featuring an impressive roster: the Flash, the Spectre, Dr. Fate, Green Lantern, Hawkman, Hour-Man, the Sandman, the Atom, and Johnny Thunder. Gardner Fox handles the writing duties inside, with Howard Sherman providing the interior art for "The Mysterious Mister X" — a title that sets up some satisfying intrigue for JSA fans.

Inza visits Doctor Fate, telling him about a fake magician named Magico, who is robbing a rich woman blind. Inza and Kent, along with Mrs. Ross, visit the phony magician, unaware that Magico is being used by Mr. X to draw Dr. Fate into a trap. When the trap is sprung, Inza is shot and Fate takes her his Salem Tower and uses magics from the ancient tombs of ancient Atlantis to help her recover. Then he heads out to find Magico and his minions, who attempt to blow him up in Magico's abode. Surviving, Fate lets Magico experience other worlds and their horrors, and he reforms on the spot!
