Bought this when it came out, probably due to the Joe Kubert cover, and loved it because of the Walt Simonson artwork.
From previous experience, I knew full well, nothing with a Joe Kubert signature would disappoint. Sure, it wasn't Tarzan or Our Army at War, but it was still pretty cool.
Also, I think, by that time, I was familiar with Dr. Fate from JSA reprints from the 100 pages JLA. So, it was all pretty cool.
Add to that Walt Simonson's impeccable design and drama - the mummy's still give me chills - and it's a no-brainer classic.
I'd buy it again at a reasonable price.
Thanks for posting.
I like this cover. Still good Kubert, before the lazy 80s.
This book is single-handedly responsible for my life-long love of the Doctor Fate character and for Egyptian motif as a comic story device. I'm glad to see it getting so much love.
