Worse Than Black Magic

Notes: Even as a child Kurt Brown was different from other people. As a twelve year old he liked to visit graveyards and as an adult he collected books on black magic. After graduation he bullies the caretaker of a graveyard to take him on as an assistant, so he'll he a quiet place to study his black magic rites. Finally he hits on the one he was searching for. He summons a ghostly appearance that gives him the ability to speak and move one thousand times faster than any other human being. He gets his wish and uses the power to rob banks and outrun the police. But he forgets one thing... in order to be able to live 1000 faster than anyone else, he has to grow old and die 1000 times faster, too.
This is the same story idea as T-097 I Was The Invisible Man! The third story drawn by Jack Kirby on his return to Marvel in the late fifties - only there the main character is a scientist rather than a thief. - Ger A.
