Owner's Description
The first issue introduces, then kills off, the original Mister Miracle, an aging but highly skilled magician/escape artist named Thaddeus Brown, thus providing the mysterious and oddly-named Scott Free, who happens by as Brown and his loyal assistant Oberon are practicing an escape, the opportunity to adopt his persona as the new Mister Miracle, Super escape artist! (What other rationale could one have for such a garish, colorful costume than show business?!) His first foe: the powerful Intergang mobster Steel Hand. Intergang (human gangsters armed with Apokoliptian technology) figured prominently in Kirby's Fourth World (especially New Gods); they first appeared in Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen 133 (Oct 1970), the first series Kirby took over when he came to DC in the late '60s.
