Doc Fate!  from DC's The Multiversity: Society of Super-heroes. (2014)

Doc Fate is a mashup of Doc Savage and Doctor Fate, who forms the Society of Super-heroes to repel the Conquerors from the Counter Earth.  Lots of pulpy goodness here, scripted by Grant Morrison and drawn by Chris Sprouse.

Powers and skills:
Drawing from Doc Savage and Doctor Fate, Doc Fate could have just about skill, and plenty of spells, but I tried to list only what was shown in one short comic.  Like, we know Doc Fate has low blow because he kicks Felix Faust in the junk:

also he likes to carry two guns, so I gave him ambidextrous.

He is an actual medical doctor, and can cast a spell to open a portal, allowing him to teleport over an unspecified distance:

He does seem to know a few other spells, but it isn't really clear what the effects are.  Also, I did not include his bases that are briefly shown, his windowless black skyscraper in manhattan - mixing Doc's office in the Empire State building the Fate's tower in Arkham.  Doc Fate also has an 'Impregnable Fortress' somewhere that resembles a meso-american pyramid, moving the  Fortress of Solitude to Central America perhaps?

Disads:
"I'm aware of my reputation as a devil worshipper in some quarters..."   Seems awfully specific, but okay.  
Also, he is being hunted by the forces of Vandal Savage in the last half of the story.
