The Wizard (And Not Of Oz)

From the forgotten superheroes file, here (like the magic resident of Oz) is another Wizard that emerged in 1939.  According to Pappy's Golden Age Comics Blogzine, he was one of the first superheroes to appear after Superman.  I especially like the king-sized, streamliner Wizardmobile.
