Revamping and updating a character that has barely appeared in comics for more than seven decades — after his run in the 1940s series Top-Notch Comics, he only made one further appearance, in 1966’s Mighty Crusaders #4 before his one-off return in 2022’s Jinx’s Grim Fairy Tales — is no easy task, but nothing Joe Corallo cannot handle!!! “

Thankfully writer Joe Corallo’s idea to craft a tale that manages to bend worlds, tell a story of fame and fortune, and mix in classic magic was a perfect way to reintroduce this character,” she continued. “And Butch Mapa continuously blows us away with his art that so perfectly merges traditional/retro styles with frightening imagery. Couple this with some gorgeous covers based on classic magic poster illustrations, and you've got a comic that will take your breath away before you can say abracadabra!"
