Origin[]
John Force, the Magic Agent, was a secret agent of the American Security Group during the Cold War era who fought Communists.
Powers and Abilities[]
While captured by Nazi's during WW2, he was visited by the spirits of 4 great sorcerers. Viewing him as unjustly imprisoned only for the crime of patriotism, they granted him a magic coin. By touching a different column on the coin, Force gained a different magic power from the sorcerers:
- Telepathy, conferred by Nostradamus.
- Illusion, granted by Merlin.
- Hypnosis, gifted by Cagliostro.
- Extra-sensory perception, given by Houdini.
The Magic Coin/Medallion
However he was not helpless without the coin's magic, John Force was very skilled in hand-to-hand combat.
