The Helmet of Fate #1 – TPB released by DC Comics on October 1, 2007
The Helmet of Fate is the overall title for a series of five one-shots released in early 2007, following the journey of the Helmet of Fate across the DCU.
Each one-shot spotlights one of DC’s lesser-known mystical names: Detective Chimp, Ibis the Invincible, Sargon the Sorcerer, Black Alice, and Zauriel.
Originally, the series was intended to lead into a new ongoing series featuring a new Doctor Fate, but writer Steve Gerber’s health problems necessitated a change of plans, with the new Fate making his first appearance in the Countdown to Mystery miniseries.
