The critically acclaimed, best selling complete reprint of The
Phantom continues! Referred to by comic strip historian Maurice
Horn as the “granddaddy of all costumed superheroes,” The
Phantom was created in 1936 by Lee Falk. 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 25th volume continues the SY BARRY
YEARS! Reprinted in all its black and white glory, journey with
Hermes Press as we bring you three complete continuities drawn by
Sy himself: "The Curse of the Sacred Image," and "The Normal Life,"
and "The Cavelands." Strips from this issue are taken directly from
King Feature’s proofs. Included in the volume is a comprehensive
essay and documentary materials.
