In Reality Z-25 31-H, Mysto the Space-Wizard was a spacefaring human magician and sorcerer. Using a mixture of prestigitation and actual magic, he took it upon himself to protect Earth and its people from supernatural cosmic threats.

Description

Physical appearance

Captain Evening was a fairly young man with Asian features. He had short, slicked-back hair and wore an extravagant wizard outfit including a cape with a high collar, as well as a staff with a huge crystal-ball pommel. (COMIC: Tales To Behold)

Personality

Mysto exuded "coolness" and self-confidence, in part as a façade to help trick his opponents into thinking he was more powerful and cosmically significant than he actually was. (COMIC: Tales To Behold)

Biography

Tricking Armagedda

Armagedda, unwilling to call Mysto's bluff, promises not to destroy the Earth. (COMIC: (COMIC: Tales To Behold)

Mysto once confronted an “omnipotent” cosmic being called Armagedda in the void of space. Armagedda was intent upon disintegrating humanity, as commanded by the Cosmic Order. However, Mysto used prestigitation to convince her that he possessed magical abilities whose energy signature she couldn't even detect. Although realising that he might be bluffing, Armagedda was unwilling to take the gamble, and agreed to promise not to destroy Earth or humanity, after which she teleported to parts unknown, leaving Mysto to make a self-satisfied remark to himself about the gullibility of the ominipotent. (COMIC: Tales To Behold)

Behind the scenes

Mysto the Space-Wizard's outfit, as well as his modus operandi of protecting Earth from supernatural threats vastly exceeding his own power, are reminiscent of the Marvel Comics character of Doctor Strange. The title of “Space Wizard” is reminiscent of the spacefaring ‘Stardust the Super Wizard’, an infamous 1940s superhero character created by the cartoonist Fletcher Hanks, who has since fallen into the public domain; although the actual comics called him a “Super Wizard”, the alternative title of “Space Wizard” is often used online and made its way to the character's use in The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.
