Blane Whitney came from a long line of Americans who served their country in one capacity or another since the Revolution, including a number of firstborn males who took the name Wizard. He donned a tuxedo, a mask, and a cape to become a superhero Wizard. He had many gadgets, such as a “Dynamagno-Saw Ray Projector,” an “H2-VX-O Ray,” and “Secret Formula F22X.” The Wizard had numerous vehicles to traverse long distances in a short span of time. Among these were a Wizard Car, submarines called Mystery Subs, a Strato-Amphibian Plane, an Airochute, a rocket-powered Neutroplane, and a Rocket-Propelled Sled. Later, he invented a body-hugging bullet-proof costume. To maintain plausible deniability, he passed himself off as an idle playboy living off his family’s fortune, getting by on the family’s reputation. His girlfriend, Jane Barlowe, has little patience with his act, but she became enamored with his superhero identity after he rescued her from kidnappers in Top Notch Comics #3. In Top-Notch Comics #8, Blane Whitney acquired the Daily Citizen, an activist newspaper, after its original owner was killed by the minions of racketeer, Benny Schultz, and Blane hoped to carry on John’s work. This issue also saw him getting a sidekick, Roy the Super-Boy. His enemies included the Crone, Doctor Defeet, Master Mind, the Monster, the Mosconians, So-Guli, the Telepathist, and Torgo. In Top-Notch Comics #25, Blane and Jane were married. While a child, the Wizard started training himself to be a “Super-Brain”. He succeeded, gaining the following powers… super strength, telepathy, clairvoyance, hypnosis, and photographic memory.
