Atkins and Bork

The owners of the Atkins and Bork Curio Shop in Gotham City. In August 1959, with the aid of a map sold to them by a dying criminal, Atkins and Bork set out to recover four objects once owned by an ancient sorcerer and possessed of miraculous powers—a green box containing a fire-breathing dragon; a "magic prism" which "distorts light and deflects energy"; a "sorcerer's glove" which has the power to "dissolve inert matter"; and a "sorcerer's mantle" which renders invisible anyone who wears it—with the apparent intention of using the objects' awesome powers for evil. Ultimately, Batman, Robin, and Superman defeat Atkins and Bork and recover the four objects, whereupon Superman hurls the objects into the air with such incredible velocity that the friction created by their passage through the atmosphere is certain to destroy them (WF No. 103: "The Secret of the Sorcerer's Treasure!").
