Notes
The Phantom started life in the 1930s as an American newspaper strip character but his adventures have proved rather more popular in Europe and Australia than in his native country. Phantom stories have been published in Britain by numerous publishers over the years, including World Distributors and Wolf Publishing. He also featured in TV Tornado and in Marvel UKs Defenders of the Earth.
