Doctor Fate, Vol. 1

The Blood Price

2016

Legendary scribe PAUL LEVITZ (LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES, JSA) and acclaimed illustrator SONNY LIEW (MY FAITH IN FRANKIE) introduce the DC Universe to an entirely new incarnation of Doctor Fate! In modern-day Brooklyn, Anubis, the Egyptian god of the dead, has called up a great flood in order to cleanse the world. If left unchecked, his magic has the power to wash all of humanity away. To turn the rising tide and save mankind, Nabu the Wise, the mystical helmet of Fate, must choose a new champion from among Earth’s greatest heroes—instead, he settles on Khalid “Kent” Nassour, Egyptian-American first-year med student. Unfortunately for the inexperienced and overwhelmed Khalid, instructions for his new abilities can’t be found in any of his textbooks. Unless he can learn to harness the ancient power of Nabu, Anubis will claim everything the new Doctor Fate holds dear, including his family, his girlfriend and the world as he knows it. Yes, the Doctor is in…way over his head. Collects issues #1-7 and DC SNEAK PEEK: DOCTOR FATE #1.

Prisoners of the Past

2016

RENDER UNTO CAESAR... Gifted with the power of Nabu, armed with the Helmet of Fate, Egyptian-American medical student Khalid Nassour is getting a crash course in the ways of the world beyond. Unfortunately, our world's a big enough mess as it is. As Khalid struggles to reconcile everything he thought he knew about life and faith with the angels, demons, gods and monsters facing him at every turn, the people of his ancestral homeland face monsters of their own. So when protests against the police state turn violent outside the Egyptian consulate in New York, it's Khalid's fate to investigate. What he discovers is a dictatorship much older—and potentially deadlier—than the one the protesters face. The spirit of none other than Julius Caesar himself has risen again, and he's determined to finish what he started and conquer Egypt for good. Stopping Caesar will take everything the new Doctor Fate knows about space and time, magic and history. And it may bring a former Fate out of retirement in the bargain... Comics legend Paul Levitz (LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES, JSA) and acclaimed artist Sonny Liew (THE SHADOW HERO, THE ART OF CHARLIE CHAN HOCK CHYE) continue their rollicking reimagining of DC's premiere superhero sorcerer in DOCTOR FATE VOL. 2: PRISONERS OF THE PAST!

Fateful Threads

2017

Khalid Nassour was just a first-year med student when he was chosen by the spirit of the sorcerer Nabu to be the new bearer of the helmet of Doctor Fate. Since then, he’s been learning about the world of magic and what it means to be a hero…but not without making a few almost deadly mistakes along the way. But now Khalid’s long-lost great uncle has returned—Kent Nelson, the original hero known as Doctor Fate. And just in time, as Khalid’s home of New York City and his loved ones find themselves under attack by fire demons and Egyptian gods. Now there are two Fates to protect the city but, unfortunately, the only one who can save New York is the one who still doesn’t understand his powers. Will Khalid master the helmet’s magic in time or is his career as a hero fated to end quickly? Acclaimed storytellers Paul Levitz (LEGION OF SUPERHEROES) and Sonny Liew (THE ART OF CHARLIE CHAN HOCK CHYE) bring their critically acclaimed reinvention of Doctor Fate to an astonishing conclusion with the help of guest artists Brendan McCarthy (SHADE, THE CHANGING MAN), Inaki Miranda (CATWOMAN) and Ibrahim Moustafa (HIGH CRIMES)! Collects DOCTOR FATE #13-18.
