Neither of those, but with the mysticism of a Sargon and the mystery of a Black Orchid. This character is a well known one.

More mystic than a Green Arrow.

I know that this character has appeared in Spectre comics. And the character is portrayed as less powerful than Fate or Spectre. But, y'know with mystic things, as powerful as needed at times.

Zatanna close and Constantine in the same area too.
But it was Madame Xanadu!
The lead was an Englehart and Rogers story. DC presumably used the success of their Batman run to conclude that this story, scheduled for a cancelled title, would work far better in the direct market.
Over to you CMK!

You know, I recall that she had a one-shot self-titled comic, but I don't think I had realized that it was direct market, much less their first. Great question.
Whom did the Fantastic Four help Doctor Doom depose from the throne of Latveria to restore Doom to power?

Nope. I'll throw this out there - the person is not another super-villain. He was simply a member of pre-Doom Latverian royal family. But I thought some here might know the name.

Sounds vaguely familiar but I can't remember the name. A Baron of some kind? No idea.

Hmm...tougher than I realized, I thought we had some Byrne-era FF fans on board. If no one has anything by tomorrow morning, I'll come up with a new question.

Nope, Kristoff was introduced during the story I'm referencing and when the forces of that other ruler killed his mother, Doom adopted him. It was only after that that Kristoff usurped Doom's throne.

Goody!
Keeping with the F4 theme, but exploring the Post-Byrne years...in the late 80s, an F4 writer misguidedly decided there should be a She-Thing. Her name was Sharon Ventura. After this writer was replaced by the great Walter Simonson, Sharon's transformation was thankfully undone.
Which character restored her to humanity?
