THE PHANTOM: VIETNAM
(Frew Publications)
“…Ma Nguoi Di. The Ghost Who Walks. I had heard his name in whispers throughout the North and South..."
Approved by King Features, The Phantom: Vietnam follows Lee Falk's internationally- renowned comic strip hero The Phantom, through stories situated in a much different jungle to the one he calls home in Bengali; the harsh terrain of Vietnam during the 1960s.
The first story was published by Frew in the Phantom 2019 Annual (issue #1830 "The Phantom at War"), and is written and drawn by Paul Mason (illustrator for the Kid Phantom comic book series) and edited by Glenn Ford (longtime Phantom illustrator and co-director of Frew Publications). This story won a Bronze Ledger at the 2020 Ledger Awards.
More stories to be released by Frew Publications in the near future.
The Phantom is available in newsagents, select Coles supermarkets and comic stores nationally, online via Frew, DIGITALLY WORLDWIDE via COMIXOLOGY and where all good Phantom comic books are sold.
