Saturday Sketch: Mango the Mighty

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.

From the Archives: Paperclip Bird

Here's an older sketch of a creepy bird thing.  I've always found it especially disturbing when inanimate objects start moving around of their own volition.

Saturday Sketch: Golden Age Nabu

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.

From the Archives: Naga

I've always been disturbed by snake creatures with humanoid heads.  I think at the time I drew this that I may have had something more complex in mind, but it never went any further than this.

Saturday Sketch: Norn Giant

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.
