The Phantom is referred to by comic historian Maurice Horn as the "father of all heroic comic strips." It was created in 1936 by Lee Falk. The comic appeared in newspaper pages long before the first appearance of the Dark Knight or Superman, and has been recognized as an influence for every "masked man of mystery" since then. The Phantom set the standards for action, adventure, intrigue, and romance in adventure comics and comic books — it has often been copied but never equaled. This exciting 29th volume continues the YEARS OF SY BARRY! Printed in all its black-and-white glory, travel with Hermes Press as we bring you four complete series drawn by Sy himself that continue the adventures of the Phantom, Diana, and their two children: “The Jungle of Gooroo,” “The Captives,” “The Phantom's Holidays,” and “The Return of the Gooroo Gang.” The panels from this issue come directly from the King Features proofs. Included in the volume is an extensive essay and documentary.
