And Then I Read: DOCTOR FATE 4

Khalid’s journey toward understanding and accepting the heroic role thrust upon him takes a quieter turn this issue, as writer Paul Levitz shows us Khalid at school, and interacting with friends and family. Then the Helmet of Fate takes him on another sort of journey into the realm of the Egyptian gods, where Nabu gives him more information about the power he can learn to harness through Thoth’s mystic Helmet. All this is enhanced by the appealing indie-comic quirkiness of Sonny Liew’s art, making this title fun to read and different from any other DC superhero comic.
