Brief Summary

The Powers

The Phantom Visage drew his powers from the mythical 'Gauntlets of Tielekku'; a pair of magical armoured gloves that provide the wearer with near infinite power subject only to his or her imagination. The gauntlets are a legacy item, with many heroes and villains having worn them over the thousands of years since their creation by the goddess Tielekku. The penultimate bearer of the gauntlets was one Andrew Netts, a legendary historian who discovered the gauntlets in ancient Egypt. While Andrew had used the gauntlets in a variety of magical ways, his successor Dr. John Bishop, the final Phantom Visage, used them for one thing only: to shoot things with magical fire.

The Hero

Mild mannered Crey Scientist Dr. John Bishop never wanted to be a hero. But all of that changed the day he found the fabled 'Gauntlets of Tielekku' in a run-down shanty house in Kings Row. Granting Dr. Bishop the powers of an arcane sorcerer, the gauntlets transformed him into a powerful magical superhero known only as "The Phantom Visage!" A master magician tasked with guarding the LIBRARIUM ARCANUS - an ancient library acting as a repository for all manner of magical tome, grimoire, and necronomicon.

The Phantom Visage had always been a powerful arcane hero, preferring to battle the likes of the Circle of Thorns & The Carnival of Shadows rather than more traditional costumed super villains. Despite this, he fought against numerous powerful supervillains. Such as Sovereign, Emperor Xanatos, and various members of the Rogues Gallery.
