Series overview
Mazing Man depicts the misadventures of Sigfried Horatio Hunch III, a civilian from Queens who dresses in a homemade costume and performs local good deeds. Viewed as a harmless kook by his neighbors, he saves a child from being hit by a truck in the first issue, earning him some respect and attention. Hunch also happens to be a millionaire after winning a magazine subscription company's sweepstakes, but he does not flaunt his wealth or live an opulent lifestyle.
The series also has a backup feature, "Zoot Sputnik", drawn by Fred Hembeck, that serves as a parody of Golden Age comics.December 2024

Reception
The original series was acclaimed, but short-lived. Comics artist Frank Miller contributed a cover for issue #12, the final issue of the monthly series, with the lead characters of The Dark Knight Returns. This created enough interest for three irregularly-issued 'Mazing Man Special comics.
