Silver Age Origin
The ASG Insignia on Force's right hand.
John Force, the Magic Agent, was a secret agent of the American Security Group during the Cold War era who fought Communists. He possessed a magic coin that had an image of Greek columns. By touching a different column on the coin Force gained a different magic power. His powers included hypnosis, illusion, and telepathy.
The Magic Coin/Medallion
However he was not helpless without the coin's magic, John Force was very skilled in hand-to-hand combat.
