Harry > Hmm... I don't believe his powers are "magic"; they might almost be considered religious, as he seems to be the shade of a dead man with the power to warp reality. Rather nastily, I might add; I remember someone mentioning in a previous posting of the old Jim Aparo issues of the Spectre wher loads of pretty gruesome stuff happened. See if you like being turned into wood and then aimed at a buzzsaw.... Anyway, I always figured that his powers came from the Big Man or Woman Upstairs (maybe as a counterpart to Satan... you know, punish the wicked, but, like, RIGHT NOW, instead of after they bite it...)
