Astride his winged steed Victory,
The Shining Knight soared from Arthurian legend into comic stardom. Created
by writer-artist Creig Flessel, he has remained in the fray to this very
day. According to Wikipedia:
.
"Sir Justin, a member of the Knights of the Round Table
in King Arthur's Court who was given, by the wizard Merlin, a magical suit of
armor (which protects its wearer from all forms of harm) and sword (capable of
cutting any substance except the aforementioned suit), as well as a winged horse
named Victory.
"During one of his adventures in Arthurian England, he became trapped in an avalanche and was buried under several feet of snow and ice, freezing him in suspended animation. He thawed out in the 1940s and fought crime using skills he gained as a knight, and took on the civilian alias of Justin Arthur. "
