From the Database: Issue 137


The Mighty Doc Stalwart Issue 137 (October, 1974)

An Arrow In The Dark

Summary: Doc Stalwart is summoned to help with a medical emergency. The sister of an Olympic athlete is dying - and the cause is unknown. When Doc realizes that she is being pulled into a shadow dimension (called ‘a world of shadow’ here), Doc sets off to free her. Arik dons a costume, becoming the Twilight Archer. They free her ‘spirit form’ from shadow creatures that are trapping her and return safely.


First Appearances: Twilight Archer; Vesper (as ‘Arik’s sister’); the Shadow Lands (as ‘a world of shadow’)

Historical Note: The character of Vesper would not appear as such until the backup story in issue 144, when she is called the Twilight Archer’s ‘kid sister’, but exhibits powers for the first time, helping him to foil a bank robbery.
