“It is as if it were written in the wind, as a legend of the past, the time when the awesome black plague ruled the Himalayan region! Men suffered unto death before its terrible spread, and hope of survival rested with a small medical team that had arrived on a mission of mercy! Yes, there was sickness, and there was death, but finally, the plague was conquered, claiming its final victims, Richard and Mary Cannon! “Out of friendship and gratitude, the high abbot of the Lamagery saw to the upbringing of the orphaned child, and developed within him the highest degree of mental and physical perfection! Then, when the youth came of age, he was entrusted with the knowledge of the ANCIENT SCROLLS, that bore the secret writings of generations of wise men! From there he learned concentration, mind over matter, the art of activating and harnessing that unused portion of his brain that made fantastic feats possible!” This was a hero who wouldn't die – not in the comics, and not in the real world. He has appeared in new adventures many times in the decades since he first appeared; thankfully, those early issues are public domain, and so we can bring them to you without fear, without concern, without lawsuits! To respect trademark, obviously we have not presented the original title or character name – but I think you have it figured out!
