Review of
Mandrake:
Test of a Magician, Indrajal Comic Book
Five out of five stars
This comic
demonstrates the reasoning power of Mandrake along with the high regard he is
held in by law enforcement and the criminal elements. It opens with an unusual
bank robbery, where a man releases a knockout gas and then physically breaks
into the vault and leaves by breaking the bulletproof class of a door. Similar
crimes follow, but they appear to have done by another person. After issuing a
bizarre public announcement about the robber, Mandrake is captured and must
face down the super criminal in a one-on-one matchup.
Fans of
Mandrake the Magician will enjoy this story, for it features Mandrake the
thinking man more than Mandrake the hypnotist that solves problems with “Mandrake
gestures hypnotically.”
