I love the more classic, pulp inspired heroes! The Phantom, the Shadow, Mandrake the Magician, both Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers, and “the man of bronze” himself, Doc Savage (along with his team of experts and adventurers)!
Didn't mention that Frew Publications started publish The Phantom comic book in 1948 and has published over 2000 editions. September 2023 was the 75th anniversary with issue no 1952. The latest issue is no 1983
??? No mention of how The Phantom was colored Red in Europe in the 60s?? Also.... the DC Comics Phantom comics started with a 4 Issues Mini-Series First. THEN it got a 13 issues series that was meant to be an ongoing series but ended up after 13 issues.
Yeah a small comeback indeed, the game looks pretty fun maybe that'll boost interest. I'm hoping an animation studio does a Phantom 2040 remake or even movie.
Hope ya'll enjoy this one
Always been my favorite comic strip.
Awesome Documentary 💀
I also liked the 4 issue Mini~Series of “Defenders of the Earth” from Marvel/Star in 1987…

Love The Phantom. :)
In Finland, Phantom's suit is blue and his trunks have red stripes.
No mention of the Dynamite Phantom comics with Alex Ross??

Yeah I skipped over the different colored suits, I think he's green in Brazil and blue in another country.
@@VoiceofRhyno Awwwwwwwwwwwwww.................. :(
Interesting, great video
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it.
I'm glad the phantom is making a small comeback

I believe Tarzan inspired The Phantom, who in his turn inspired Batman.
Yeap Tarzan's backstory in the jungle and Zoro's mask for the costume.
You forgot the Shadow as well.
Wasn't the Phantom originally in India(see the rl location of the Bay of Bengal) and him being in Africa a retcon?
Yeah, Originally Bengali in India but they changed it to Bangalla in Africa.
The Phantom Needs a Reboot Like "Batman Begin"
Heck yeah, I'd like to see a reboot with an updated suit.
@@VoiceofRhyno Touche' (smile)
Sweden still gives out the comics.
No, you got a ring from 7-11 when you bought a Slurpee.
Did 7-11 have those rings? 😂
We need a new movie of the Phantom. It's African origin is interesting. Fighting modern pirates can be interesting.
Definitely a whole lot of storytelling they could bring.
But the Bay of Bengal is the Indian Coastline...
