شبح [Shabh / Fantam' / Phantom]

A four-issue comic series launched by Al Shaab Library in 1980, شبح (Phantom) adapts the classic masked hero for an Egyptian audience, marking a notable early example of localized superhero publishing in the region. The series draws on the global Phantom mythos while reflecting its own cultural context. Though brief, it remains a distinctive artifact from the early 1980s Egyptian comics scene.
