Notes:

"Doctor Droom" was introduced in an awkward tale from Amazing Adventures #1 where a Caucasian man learned magic and was turned into an Asian. This story was republished years later in Weird Wonder Tales #19. The name was changed to Doctor Druid to avoid confusion with Doctor Doom and the race-changing aspect of his origin was edited out.
