"Eccentric composer" and violinist with a huge mansion from the "Case of the Gold Crow" story of comic book Sparkler Comics #3 (September 1941) , published by Frances M. McQueeny.
Violinist Omar Kavak (secretly superhero The Spark Man) speculates with co-musician Alex Grant that a recent string of thirty-one (!) mysterious murders must be done by a musician. Each victim is lured to their window by the "haunting melody" of "The Song of the Crow," then killed by a thrown knife with a gold crow on the handle.
When Kavak is nearly killed the same way that night, he transforms into Spark Man and investigates Poole's mansion. He stumbles onto a bizarre scene: Poole inviting a group of masked men into his house before a gold, crow-shaped throne. Playing "The Song of the Crow," there is a burst of light and smoke, and he seemingly has summoned Ita, the goddess of death!? She accepts an "offering" (gold) from the men (criminals) who want a certain judge Ashton killed. The Spark Man prevents a sniper from shooting Ashton, and rushes back to the mansion to defeat the criminals and tie up Poole and his female accomplice and leave then for District Attorney Dillion.
