On Earth-One, the Wizard was an enemy of the Blackhawk Squadron.
History
In 1958 the famous stage magician Alec Royer faked his own death, and calling himself "the Wizard," embarked on a career of crime in which he used stage magic tricks to make airplanes disappear, royal jewels float away, and alien monsters appear on the streets. In the span of two weeks, he clashed three times with the famous Blackhawk Squadron, escaping with valuable loot each time, and in that third encounter, he destroyed all six of the Blackhawk F-90 interceptors, in mid-air.
After investigating some of the world's top stage magicians, and learning some things about the career of the supposedly-dead Alec Royer, Blackhawk arranged and publicized a provocative magic trick of his own, in order to lure the unknown "Wizard" to tip his hand, which he did. Alec Royer was defeated and arrested by the Blackhawks.
