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) 
"WOTAN!" (2/5) In Fox and Sherman's original story, it's never said how Inza finds Wotan, and why Fate couldn't find him himself. In 2020, we've got plenty of ways to find people -- but I can't see Doctor Fate having an IG
"WOTAN!" (3/5) The man himself.
"WOTAN!" (4/5) It was this moment, where Fate throws his energy into Inza so she can take on the apes herself (real apes in the original, animated statues here) that made me want to do this adaptation in the first place.
"WOTAN!" (5/5) Rocks fall, everybody lives
That's "WOTAN!" Thanks for indulging me -- I never draw for myself anymore, and it was a lot of fun putting this together. I'm a big fan of Dr Fate, and of all the creators who've brought him to life over the past 8 decades. I figure we've got at least a couple more in the tank.
If you liked this and want to see more in this vein, check out my @webtoon series LAVENDER JACK— it’s definitely got its roots in Golden Age comics, with a modern mystery sensibility. Been going for 2 years, got some Eisner and Ringo noms, ain’t half bad! webtoons.com/en/super-hero/…
