Forget the Justice League Dark - this new magic squad has taken over! Get a look into the latest from DC Comics!
In the DC Universe, the heroes are no strangers to mystical battles! When things are bad, it often takes the Justice League Dark to deal with the threats that threaten to overrun the DC universe! But in a new story, the latest from Batman / Superman: World's Finest #29, they might have to step aside, as there's a New Team on the block! This crew of heroes has the most power, leaving Justice League Dark looking more like amateurs!
We see how these powerful magic heroes were brought together. A menacing threat (Doom-Mite) overpowered Superman and Batman, leaving them needing the most powerful magic users! So Mr. Mxyzptlk and Bat-Mite have the mission of gathering everyone with supernatural strength.
The origin of Johnny Thunder is deeply rooted in DC Comics history, from the Golden Age of Comics! Created by John Wentworth and Stan Aschmeier, this character was first featured in Flash Comics #1 back in the 1940s, bringing a vintage style into the mix!
Dr. Occult has been a well-known figure in DC Comics! Dr. Richard Occult is the classic, and often forgotten, magic-wielding hero! You can go back all the way to 1935 for his debut in New Fun Comics #6. The history of this powerful character is just as deep as some of DC Universe metahuman, who have fought the world's strongest heroes and villains, a powerful force with strong mystical abilities.
Another obscure, and equally interesting DC Comics character is Prince Ra-Man, whose origins and mystical powers will likely grab the attention of fans! With his roots going back to House of Secrets #73 in the 1960s, this story reveals a heroic force that wields immense powers! But be sure to go even further back, as there are tales that center around Mark Merlin. This is another one of his personas that appear within DC Universe, with his own adventures!
