May 2020 marks the 80th birthday of DC Comics’ DOCTOR FATE, and it seemed a shame to let his diamond anniversary pass unacknowledged. I give you — “WOTAN!” A modern retelling of Gardner Fox and Howard Sherman’s original Dr Fate story from MORE FUN COMICS #55. Enjoy! (1/5) pic.twitter.com/FoHwuCXVBo
