Description
After a long hiatus, the WHITECHAPEL Remake/Remodel thread is back! Good, I've been too lazy on my fast concepting, so here's the new challenge:"You have been hired to revive, remake and remodel a beloved character from comic past. The writer, however, is incredibly busy and has gone in to The Writing Tomb. The writer can't be contacted and all you hear coming from the Tomb is crying. However the writer, acknowledging that you have to put together some promo material to keep people happy, emerged briefly to hand you the following description of MYSTICO. It reads:
"Restored to life through Dr. Slade's vita-ray, Mystico, a seer of ancient Egypt, has placed his magic powers at the service of humanity." Now, based out of a club, he works with the American and British governments to protect freedom. He receives psychic messages from the old gods, he has magic-based telekinesis (to the degree that he can use skyscrapers as javelins), and he has various other plot-device powers, although creatures from pre-historic times, like the monstrous Amphisaur that sinks various naval ships, are immune to his powers. Mystico fights invisible gangsters and giant gangsters, insane would-be world tyrants and their man-ape sidekicks, Dr. Slade (a skull-face Mad Scientist plotting against America), Dr. Nevins (a long-time student of witchcraft who summons harpies from the distant past in order to conquer the world), and Zarbu, a Turkish sorcerer released from entombment who plans to conquer America. Mystico appears in stories with titles like "The Element of Fear," "Nick Wolve and the Dinosaur Egg," and "Ottmar Lutz's Meteor Magnet."
So there you have it. An ancient Egyptian Seer brought back to life in modern day and working with the government to protect Earth from some incredibly crazy shit.
What's he look like?
GO."
My favorite line: "Now, based out of a club, he works with the American and British governments to protect freedom. He receives psychic messages from the old gods, he has magic-based telekinesis (to the degree that he can use skyscrapers as javelins)"
So maybe, US Government, hiring the club magician who's maybe a bit depressed about being a club magician, who has voices talking to him, and can toss buildings around...MAYBE not the best guy to put on the payroll. Because WHEN he loses his shit... Just sayin'...
