Eighty years ago this month, newspaper readers in America encountered a mystery man in a mask and trunks, who fought evildoers. The name of this hero was the Phantom.

The Phantom changed the nature of American comics forever. It's obvious Superman, Captain America, Spider-Man (both characters wear masks with no visible pupils) and especially Batman all owe a big debt to the Ghost Who Walks. The character has millions of "Phans" worldwide.

The Phantom has been especially popular in Australia-so much so, that the Australian
Post Office are issuing a special set of stamps to commemorate the anniversary!

If anyone's going to the Dublin Comic Con for August 6th-7th, there's a special Phantom
comic, "Tales of the Ghost Who Walks", being sold there:
