classic Bernard Baily Spectre cvr/art; 1st app. of Dr. Fate (Kent Nelson), 1st Wotan & Inza, 4th Spectre
First, there's Bernard Baily's classic cover art for the Spectre's fourth appearance, revered by Golden Age collectors and scholars as among the most evocative and memorable of all DC imagery. This beloved comic then becomes even more collectible with the first appearance of Dr. Fate. The debut of DC's resident sorcerer helped solidify the company's stable of mystical and moody characters. Without the dark mystery and dramatic origin of Dr. Fate, none of the Bronze Age's occult wizardry would have been possible — with the character also becoming a vital part of DC's storytelling throughout the ensuing decades.
Of course, the Spectre has also spent decades as a fan favorite, with fans currently anticipating the character finally making a big-screen debut as part of the developing DC Extended Universe. This legendary book remains a top investment and beloved title for all serious collectors of the Golden Age.
