Here is a second sketch and the final piece of my Golden Age Doctor Fate set. There are several characters from the early stories that I haven't addressed. I may add them to the set later, but for the time being this is the last.
One of Doctor Fate's earlier villains, Ian Karkull plagues Doctor Fate and the Golden Age Green Lantern well into the modern age of comics. During their first encounter, it is Doctor Fate that causes Karkull to become trapped in his shadow form.
In More Fun Comics #59, the Golden Age Doctor Fate runs up against a group of strange Spacemen.
Another of Doctor Fate's early foes, Mister Who gained shape changing and size changing abilities from ingesting Solution Z! Mister Who showed up later in Doctor Fate's chronology, fighting against the All-Star Squadron as member of the Monster Society of Evil.
Conjured by Mango the Mighty to protect himself from Doctor Fate, this mob of shrouded dead are known as the Legion of the Styx.
Here we have one of Doctor Fate's early adversaries, Mango the Mighty. Although his name doesn't exactly inspire fear, this sorcerer was murdering people with globes of fire before the Doctor finally shows up. Mango also summons a horde of angry undead, the Legions of the Styx, to fight for him against the Doctor but in the end he loses. Of course.
Here we have the ancient Egyptian Lord of Order, Nabu the Wise, as he appeared in Doctor Fate's Origin in More Fun Comics #67. I've always been fascinated by the symbiotic relationship between Nabu and Kent Nelson as the Doctor.
In his early adventures, Doctor Fate encountered the Fish-men of Nyarl-Amen with their electro-dart-shooting tridents.
Here we have a Norn Giant from one of Doctor Fate's early adventures. These guys are several stories tall. I made him appear more angry than the giants appear in the original strip. I also neutralized the colors just a tad to make them more palatable.
In his secret origin story, Doctor Fate confronts Negal, the giant ruler of the Underworld of Charn.
In one of his early adventures, Doctor Fate journeys to Hell in search of the soul of Wotan and encounters the Ferryman and a group of the dead. Doctor Fate bullies the Ferryman into allowing he and Inza to cross the River Styx into Hell.
I don't know much about Kent Nelson from the original Doctor Fate stories. I've always been much more interested in Doctor Fate anyway. Much like the sketch of Inza Cramer, the fun in this piece was doing the research into vintage clothing and hairstyles. 
Here we have, Inza Cramer, trusted companion to the original Doctor Fate. Inza eventually marries Kent Nelson, host of the Doctor, and eventually goes on to assume the mantle of Doctor Fate herself. This piece was fun because I had the opportunity to explore the hairstyles and clothing of 1939-1940 from around the time that the Doctor and Inza made their first appearances.
Returning my focus to DC Comics, I figured I would pick up where I left off with Classic Doctor Fate and explore some of the people, places, and artifacts from the beginning of his mythos. Here we have the classic version of Fate's Tower. I've always been
fascinated by the Doctor's tower especially in more modern versions with
its Escher like mystical landscapes within. I'd never read the older Doctor Fate stories from More Fun Comics until I began working on these pieces. They have a Sunday newspaper comic strip quality to them.
A classic version of one of my favorite sorcerers DC Comics, Doctor Fate.
