We all face fear--in the form of a monster or a hospital bed. I--I'm afraid that I let my adoptive mother and father down--I'm afraid that the war will never end--I--I'm afraid of what I've become. I'm afraid that Kent Nelson's fears are only a nostalgic indulgence. I'm afraid Doc Fate fears nothing at all.

Notes
- Doc Fate is an amalgam of the Doctor Fate concept with that of Doc Savage.
- This version of Kent Nelson is African-American.
- Like his enemy, Doc Faust, Doc Fate's magic is apparently a combination of traditional sorcery and dieselpunk technology.
- Doc Fate's spells invoke the names of "Buddahakh-Amun" and "Ra-Amida". Both names are amalgamations of the names of the Egyptian god, Ra, and the Buddha.
