Sargon the Sorcerer

Sargon first appeared in All-American Comics #26 (May 1941), and was created by John B. Wentworth and Howard Purcell. The character is the son of archaeologist Richard Sargent, who gained magic powers after reciting an incantation while holding an artifact that had been given to him by his mother. He was a stage magician, dressed like a swami complete with turban, to disguise the fact that he wielded true mystic powers. He later became a crime-fighter and was notably a peer of other magic users such as Zatara and Baron Winters. Sargon appeared in live-action in the Arrowverse crossover Crisis on Infinite Earths, portrayed by Raúl Herrera. In the New 52 reboot, the character's history changed; while John's lifetime mirrors the Golden Age storyline, thecharacter is instead succeeded by his daughter, Jaimini Sargents. The second Sargon, David SargENT, first appears in Helmet of Fate: Sargon #1 (April 2007) and wascreated by Steve Niles and Scott Hampton.
