Referred to by comic strip historian Maurice Horn as the
"granddaddy of all costumed superheroes," The Phantom was created
in 1936 by Lee Falk with artwork by Sy Barry. The strip hit the
funny pages of newspapers well before the Dark Knight or Superman
made their first appearances and has been acknowledged as an
influence on every "masked man of mystery" since. The Phantom set
the standard for action, adventure, intrigue, and romance in
adventure comic strips and comic books - it has frequently been
copied but never equaled. This exciting 22nd volume continues the
SY BARRY YEARS! Reprinted in all its black and white glory, journey
with Hermes Press as we bring you five complete continuities drawn
by Sy himself: "Rex, the Missing Heir," and "The Gladiator," "The
Missing Daddy," "Luaga's Undercover Tour," and "The Mission."
Strips from this issue are taken directly from King Feature's
proofs. Included in the volume is a comprehensive essay and
documentary materials.
