MINOR SUPER-VILLAIN 357: MUMBO JUMBO

(Master Comics 016, 1941) 


I always have an instinct to skip the really racist ones, but I think it's better to acknowledge them? There's lots of messed up shit in old (and new) comics, folks. 

Anyway, Mumbo Jumbo is a guy named Graynor who poses as a voodoo god/ priest in classic (often quite racist) comics style and uses the believers at his command in order to... get revenge on his old boss. It's a shocking lack of ambition on top of everything else - just as well that he gets murderated by Zoro the Mystery Man's pet cheetah.
