Ibis the Invincible is Prince Amentep, a superhero and powerful sorcerer. He appears in American comic books published by Fawcett Comics, and later by DC Comics in the 1970s. Born a Prince of Egypt, he was given the Ibistick by Thoth. His partner and love is the princess Taia. When the Black Pharaoh usurped his throne and wounded Taia, Ibis placed both of them in suspended animation to heal, and they were revived in the present. He has been a member of the All-Star Squadron and the Squadron of Justice. Danny Khalifa was later chosen by Amentep as his successor.
