About the series
In the early 1960s, Western Publishing brought Lee Falk’s pulp hero to a new generation with The Phantom, a 17-issue series that ran from 1962 to 1966. Anchored by the bold, dynamic art of Bill Lignante and scripts from Falk, Bill Harris, and Dick Wood, these comics delivered classic jungle adventures for the Ghost Who Walks. It stands as a key mid-century revival of the character, offering a crisp, colorful entry point for young readers before the hero’s newspaper strip dominance.
