    Dr Fate is a legacy of heroes in the realm of magic who act as agents of the Lords of Order in the battle against chaos by using the powerful Helmet of Fate. The majority of the wearer's powers come from Nabu. The Helmet of Fate grants vast magical powers but without the helmet, the wearer's powers are limited to their own sorcery. Doctor Fate possesses various magical powers, either due to training from Nabu or due to Nabu advising Fate through the helmet, such as spellcasting, flight, telekinesis, and telepathy to name a few. Fate's magic manifests in the shape of Egyptian hieroglyphs such as an ankh. Just curious to see where my fellow comic fans thoughts on DC's often under used powerhouse sorcerer.

    @texplorer: The art is just sketch concept art not what it will look like when it's finished.

    @rdclip: Earth-2 will be cancelled to be Earth-2 Society. Where Doctor Fate will be on it but they should kill Batman and replace him with Ted Grant.

    Sidekick.

    Because we all know Nabu is a massive d-bag. The best thing to do about that is to train someone innately so that they can reach the level of Fate without the Helm of Nabu.

    Although I do love classic Kent Nelson, I really enjoyed the Khalid Nassour series. He was a likable character, drawn in the non-traditional but very endearing art style of Sonny Liew, AND he actually fought Great Caesar's Ghost. Even if his time is done in the comics, I will remember this version fondly.

    @allstarsuperman: Kent Nelson in a comic book. IDK why the hell DC thinks its okay to just throw the Helmet of Fate on any random person." Whoa somebody just threw a big truth bomb, the series After Infinite Crisis was pretty good I believe starring Kent Nelson's grandson, so either bring that back or God forbid put Kent Nelson back in the damn helmet

    Did Pre-Flashpoint Dr. Fate come back a couple of months ago? Becuase I know it wasn't the new Dr. Fate who showed up at Ted Kord's lab to talk.
