The critically acclaimed reprint of the Ghost Who Walks continues! The
first three volumes are already sold out so act fast and pick up the fourth in
the series as soon as you can! The first, original, and best masked hero to
ever grace the pages of comic strips and comic books returns in the fourth
volume of Hermes Press’ new complete critically acclaimed reprint of The
Phantom. 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 Ray Moore. 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.
Included in this volume are
three complete Phantom adventures utilizing original King Features syndicate
press proofs. See the strips in original, pristine condition.
