“A Symphony of Shadows - First Movement: Once Upon a Time...”

This 1988 DC anthology spotlights two of comics' most beloved magical performers — Zatara, Master of Magic, and Zatanna, Princess of Prestidigitation — as the cover by Tom Artis and Doug Hazlewood frames them in full theatrical style against a star-spangled stage backdrop. The dapper, tuxedoed Zatara commands the scene alongside his daughter Zatanna, who holds a small green creature, while doves and a bat swirl dramatically overhead. With Roy Thomas and Robert Loren Fleming on writing duties and the father-daughter magical legacy as the twin focus, this issue is a treat for anyone drawn to DC's more mystical corners.
