Kismet is an Algerian hero in a yellow fez who fights Nazis in 1940s comics. He is generally identified as the first Muslim superhero. His alter ego is Khalil Qisma, and he has limited precognition and advanced gymnastic agility. (Source: en.wikipedia.org)
Kismet first appeared in Bomber Comics #1 (March 1944), published by Elliot Publishing Company, and the original series ran only four issues. Sources disagree about the creator: Wikipedia credits the pen name "Omar Tahan", while TV Tropes names Ruth Roche. A. David Lewis revived the character in the modern graphic novel Kismet, Man of Fate: Boston Strong (A Wave Blue World), set after the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing. (Source: en.wikipedia.org)
