October 19th - Brother Voodoo

Doctor Jericho Drumm is a champion of the supernatural who communes with the dead as the mystical superhero known as Brother Voodoo.  Dr. Drumm had originally rejected the superstitious traditions of his village in Haiti and relocated to America where he became a renowned scholar and psychologist.  

Following the tragic death of his twin brother, however, Dr. Drumm would have a change of heart.  He discovered his brother had been a sorcerer and hougan who had used his magical powers to protect the innocent.  Drumm vowed to honor his brother’s legacy and thus returned to Haiti and trained under the voodoo luminary, Papa Jambo.   Drumm possessed a natural acumen for magic and quickly became a highly proficient necromant and sorcerer.  He came to be known as The Brother Voodoo and used his skills and knowledge to fight crime. 

During his many adventures Brother Voodoo would face numerous threats.  This included the zombie master, Baron Samed, the villainous Cult of The Dark Lord, and Count Dracula.  He has also teamed up with many fellow superheroes, such as Spider-Man, The Werewolf by Night, Daredevil and The Fantastic Four.  

When Doctor Strange lost his position as Sorcerer Supreme for having employed dark magic, Brother Voodoo was chosen to step in as a stewardship position, acting as the master of mystic arts. This prompted him to join the Avengers in a battle against the demonic lord Dormammu, who wished to determine the fate of the new Sorcerer Supreme. Having become an ally to the Avengers, Doctor Voodoo tragically sacrificed himself to prevent the original Sorcerer Supreme, Agamotto, from claiming his powers and bring calamity to the world of man.

Returned from the dead by the machinations of Doctor Doom, Drumm joined the Avengers Unity Division under the new moniker of ‘Doctor Voodoo.’  During his time as an Avenger, Drumm had a brief affair with his teammate, The Scarlet Witch.  Although their romance proved short, the two have remained close friends and allies in battles against supernatural threats.  

More recently, Doctor Voodoo has assumed an important role as the headmaster of the Strange Academy, an institution focused on teaching youngsters to improve their magical skills.

STRANGE ACADEMY launches March 2020, helmed by Skottie Young and Humberto Ramos

Set in New Orleans, the series will focus on a magical school founded by Stephen Strange and Jericho Drumm to provide a safe, educational space for young magicians to hone their craft. The student body will comprise of mainly new characters from every magical corner of the Marvel universe, including Asgard and Otherworld, and the faculty will bring together familiar characters such as Wanda Maximoff, Ilyana Rasputina, and Nico Minoru. With any luck, Billy Kaplan, Megan Gwynn, and other fan favorite magicians will make appearances well. I’m hoping this book will also be used to further develop Wanda and Jericho’s romantic relationship.
