Camelot (DC)

Camelot is a place that features in DC Comics.

History

Pre-Crisis

Camelot came to reside in the realm of Magic-Land which was a duplicate that resided in the magic dimension. (Justice League of America v1 #2)

Camelot and the Magic-Lands began to suffer from lack of rain with the great magician Merlin tasked with crafting a spell so that crops would grow in the lands. Despite his efforts, he was unable to make it rain due to magic being dispelled from the realm due to the spell cast by the kingdoms enemies namely the evil magician Simon Magus, Saturna the Lord of Misrule and the Troll King. The trio had discovered the existence of Earth through a golden doorway they had called forth allowing travel to that world. They then cast a spell that switched the Magic-Land with Earth resulting in their resultant laws of magic and science to be swapped. The result was that magic could no longer be used in the realm allowing the three villains to use their acquisition of science to conquer the kingdom. After plundering Camelot, they fled to their respective lands which was when Merlin was transported to Earth by a summoning spell made by the depowered Justice League. They came to learn the source for the disasters affecting Earth and went to Magic-Land to assist Camelot in defeating the three villainous sorcerers. (Justice League of America v1 #2)
