“ Yarva Demonicus Etrigan. Change, change the form of man. Free the prince forever damned. Free the might from fleshy mire. Boil the blood in heart of fire. Gone, gone the form of man, Rise the demon Etrigan! ”
Jason Blood's first transformation into the Demon occurs when reading the inscription on the surface of a stone tomb:
“ Change! Change, O form of man! Release the might from fleshy mire! Boil the blood in heart of fire! Gone! Gone! -- the form of man -- Rise, the Demon Etrigan!!"
(Demon no. 1 August/September 1972 p. 22)

Obviously, I had completely missed Quis' post/the 18th page last night when I posted that.
I was looking for the version with the "Free the Prince forever damned" line, but if there's an actual "important" version without it though, then Cobalt gets it anyway.
Away you go Cobalt.

When Fawcett Comics went out of business, DC Comics took over one of their ongoing titles and continued its numbering. What was that title?

Quis has it! Out of curiosity--was this something you knew beforehand or just a guess? It's a cool little piece of trivia.

It was an educated guess. I went to a site that listed all of Fawcett's Golden Age Titles. I knew they closed down in the 50's (or late 40's) and that westerns were popular then.
Now for my question...
Who did Superman save from being executed in his first story?

Could you have at least waited 5 minutes to give the correct answer?

I've read that story like 15 times in the Superman Archives.
Keeping with that Superman theme: Superman was immensely popular in the Golden Age and his logo often appeared in other DC stories even if he did not. What DC character wore a version of the Superman costume throughout an entire story in the Golden Age?
