Last, but not least, we have the third and final Phantom story from issue #39, "The Silent Thieves". Apparently, in the early 1970's, Bangalla was the go-to spot for ex-Nazi's on the run. Bad choice, Heinrich, The Ghost Who Walks has no patience for Fascism!
Before there was Superman or Batman or Spider-Man, there was The Phantom. Playwright and cartoonist Lee Falk introduced The Phantom to the world in 1936.
Since then, The Phantom has run continuously in newspapers around the world, gaining a following in Europe, Asia, South America, Australia and New Zealand. He has spawned films adaptations, paperback novels, an animated television show and several comic book series.
I have been drawn to the Phantom by his unique backstory-one of the best in sequential media. This blog will let me share with others the exciting world of "The Ghost Who Walks, Who Cannot Die...The Phantom!!"

ReplyDeletethe weird depth perception on this cover still freaks me out. the sub way down below looks like a model, close enough for the Phantom to touch.
Lysdexicus: I know, I think the same thing every time I see it. It looks like he's about to knife a toy submarine.
