A thread for Golden Age characters you feel like talking about in general, whether it be because of their interesting origins, the stories they were in, the art they’ve been showcased in and so on.

I was always a sucker for Flash Gordon.

For me, the concept of a spirit coming back from the dead to avenge someone, like the Spectre, fascinates me. Also what fascinates me is reincarnation, like with Hawkman, or trained sorcery, like with Doctor Fate. Basically, any origin that resembles anything magical/spiritual/supernatural is likely to catch my attention.
