	Dakor the Magician
		It is, perhaps, difficult for modern readers to completely comprehend the effect that Mandrake the Magician had on both comic creators and comic readers during the Golden Age.
		He's got Mandrake's pencil-thin mustache and snazzy threads, as well as the vaguely-defined powers of Mandrake, who initially did have magic powers before they were replaced with hypnotism and the quick Mandrake wit.
		One significant difference between Dakor and Mandrake is that Mandrake was a moral and good man. Dakor...well, his seeming insistence on being paid to solve crimes makes him not quite such a sterling person.

	Mandrake the Magician
		I liked the first couple of chapters; Mandrake does a magic trick or two, and occasionally tosses those nifty little smoke capsules and then sprints out of the room, leaving the villains wondering how the heck he did that.
		It gets tiresome, however, and pretty soon even Mandrake loses interest, tossing the capsules and then just standing there, waiting for the smoke to clear and the fisticuffs to continue.
		A Mandrake serial should have done more with the mystical aspect of the character, even if only having its hero pull bunnies out of his hat to throw at the villains.
