However, from letters and requests received, it seems one per year is not enough as it will take 50 years to get to Issue 73!

Unfortunately the old guard at Frew at the time decided to publish the story in one issue instead of two and deleted so much of the first part of the story that this issue is noted as containing part 2. Frew continued to publish this part 2 edition for many years. The only place to find the missing panels of part 1 was in old library issues of ‘The Australian Woman’s Mirror’ weekly magazine commencing 3 May 1938.

The story ran for only 11 weeks in the daily newspapers and Frew needed close to 14 weeks to fill a comic book. The old guard at Frew solved this problem by swiping the last two weeks from the previous daily story ‘The 50th Wife’ which had more art than they needed and added that to the start of ‘The Iron Dragon’ giving the company enough material to fill the comic book.

The story was only slightly edited for this and future issues. This story was originally published in issue 104 in 1956. Its stable companion back then was the once only published short daily story ‘The Wisdom of Solomon.’ ‘Wisdom’ was highly sought after by collectors for many years. Unfortunately when issue 104 was to be reprinted in No. 193 ‘Wisdom’ could not be used, most likely the art was damaged or lost, and the old guard at Frew had to quickly find a replacement. Issue 194 was to be ‘Queen Asta of Trondelay’ so the publisher used as much of the early part of this story as possible to fill in for the lost ‘Wisdom of Solomon’ and now the partner for ‘The Rope People’ became part one of ‘Queen Asta of Trondelay’ and remained so for many years.

Frew first published this story in Issue No 103 back in 1956. On 29 October 1950 was the first explanation of how the Phantom received his skull ring. ‘He was the first Phantom! As he swore the famous oath, he received an ancient death’s head ring from the jungle kings.’ Another secret is revealed when Fatsy discovers the Phantom’s ring and realises it is made of \u003cb\u003egold\u003c\/b\u003e. The wearer of the Phantom’s Skull Ring is proclaimed to be a Phantom friend and protected by The Phantom. Further, and for the first time, ‘The Phantom follows the ring.’ This story was issued complete in Issue No 1209. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIssue \u003cb\u003eNo 188\u003c\/b\u003e holds two stories. The first is part two of the 1940 daily story ‘The Seahorse’ with art by Ray Moore and the second is the 1952 Sunday story ‘The Copter Pirates’ with art by Wilson McCoy. ‘The Seahorse’ was first issued in Nos 10\/11 back in 1949 and reprinted in Issue Nos 100\/101 in 1956. However, all editions from No 100 were censored. In the original story when the Phantom is captured aboard the Seahorse he is lowered by rope over the stern to be cut to pieces by the ship’s propellers. This was considered too gruesome and the panels were altered to show the Phantom dropped into shark infested waters instead. Also Diana could not be shown draped over the barrel of a deck cannon.

Baron Danton is the second villain to die accidentally. The first was the thuggee in the stream at Mt Trepnich in the first Phantom adventure. This story was published complete for the first time in issue No 953A. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e‘The Copter Pirates’ was published for the first time in Issue\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNo 188\u003c\/b\u003e. Drake the international thief, like Prince Bey of ‘The 50\u003csup\u003eth\u003c\/sup\u003e Wife,’ also falls in love with Diana and has ideas of making her his wife. In some ways this story is reminiscent of ‘The Sky Band’ when the Phantom searches for the island nest of the Copter Pirates. The Phantom and natives set out to paddle 200 miles to Sandy Rock Island and an interesting drama unfolds when there is a tug of war between the helicopter and a loaded war canoe!

This story was discussed in the previous edition of the Collectors Replica Series. Briefly Frew first published this story in Issues 10 and 11 back in 1949. It was reprinted in The Issues 100 and 101 and then this Issue 187 and 188.  As mentioned previously all Issues from number 100 were censored until the story was finally published complete in Issue 953A. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNote: Diana’s mother is now named ‘Lily’ by Uncle Dave. Dave says “Diana, you’re in love with a strange man, who’s more legend than fact. He’s regarded by millions as an immortal superman. In many places his word means life or death.” When Diana’s mother asks Dave where The Phantom is, his reply is a classic legend in Phantom history “Where do lights go when they are turned out?

Phantom “I must find out more about Queen Sansamor – who lets men fight to the death for her amusement.” Sansamor’s guards think The Phantom has changed into a wolf, an idea Lee Falk would utilise again in Wilson McCoy’s last daily story ‘The Werewolf.’ Cali looks up The Phantom in the\u003ci\u003e ‘Book of Legends’\u003c\/i\u003e “Phantom also known as Ghost Who Walks said to be immortal.

It is a good mark story showing the first good mark sign shaped like an X and features the first ‘fake’ good mark sign. The Jungle Patrol feature at the start but soon disappear reappearing at the end of the story. It is also a Jungle Olympics story and The Phantom gives Diana her first horse ‘Lady.’ In total The Phantom will give Diana four horses!

The twins receive the skull mark, one says “…the skull mark – won’t come off.” The Phantom replies “It’ll wear off – in a few years.” The Phantom gives the twins a chance to win the trophy by entering the Olympics but they are soon found by the committee to be ‘not qualified.’ \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Gurk twins are offered two alternatives, first to feed and water a thousand horses, which they learn is hard work, or help Dr Meeks catch butterflies, they choose butterflies.

The old guard at Frew originally published the story in Issue No 6 in 1949 and unfortunately this very first one was censored and so were all subsequent reprints.

In this censored issue check out Diana’s brief costume in Krakatan and see how it has been inked over so that more of her top and legs are covered. At the end of the story compare the brief attire of Sala as she appears in The Phantom’s cell on Mt Trepnich and saves The Phantom’s life twice, from the boiling oil and from Kabai Singh.

It is believed that Lee Falk drew the first two weeks of the story before Ray Moore took over the artwork. Ray Moore first signed the strip on 02 March and drew The Phantom’s eyes or the appearance of his eyes on 16, 23 and 28 April and 12, 13, 14 and 15 May! There are at least five variations of the Skull Mark in this first story and Dabi is the first giant to face The Phantom.

The Phantom reads an entry in the first book written by the first Phantom. The entry is dated May 1555 regarding the pirate stronghold of Tomas. The final entry in the chronicle on this story read ‘Capt. Kidder, though a rogue, had an odd sense of humor.’ The first complete printing of ‘Captain Kidder’s Treasure’ was published in No 1009. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIssue \u003cb\u003eNo 182\u003c\/b\u003e contains the second printing of the 1955 daily story ‘The Slimming of Prince Tagon’ with art by Wilson McCoy.

Phantom “If any jungle people approach you, show them that. You won’t be molested…’. In the 1950\/51 Sunday story ‘The Phantom’s Ring,’ complete in No 1075, ‘The wearer of The Phantom’s Skull Ring is proclaimed to be a friend of The Phantom and is protected by the Phantom.’ The first Good Mark applied by the Good Mark ring, appears in the 1958 daily story ‘Carlyle’s Good Mark’ complete in No. 1075. Prior to ‘The Devil Road’ The Phantom had twice sent his Skull Ring to the Bandar to summons them for help. The first time was in the 1936\/37 daily story “The Sky Band’ complete in No 1147 and the second time in the 1939 Sunday story ‘The League of Lost Men’ complete in No 939A, when he gives his ring to Helen Thrush to take to the Bandar. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWe now offer this as a physical paper comic or as a digital comic.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePlease be aware that\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eif choosing a Digital Comics\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003efrom the dropdown menu below they are for private usage only!

I suggest reading 174 (part 1) before reading 175 (part 2)! No. 174 and No. 175 contain the second publication of part 1 and part 2 of the 1943\/44 daily story ‘The Governor and Suzie’ with art by Wilson McCoy. This story was previously published in three issues No. 79, 80 and 81 back in 1955. This story follows on from ‘The Phantom’s Engagement’, complete in issue No. 1154 and 1340, when Diana told the Phantom she was going to marry Byron. At the end of ‘The Phantom’s Engagement’ there is a caption leading into the next story, ‘Next Week: High Seas Highjacker’. Whether this is meant to be the story title for ‘The Governor and Suzie’ or just a lead in telling readers what was coming up is open to debate as Lee Falk did not title the actual story. The Phantom boards the S.S.Harvey. This is the fifth time the Phantom stays in cabin 14! On deck Suzie desperately tries to meet the mysterious ‘Mr Walker.’ Reminiscent of Trudy in ‘The Shark’s Nest.’ Suzie and the General talk about the Phantom,“…it was a native legend of a man who had lived for centuries – who was rough on all lawbreakers – but especially rough with pirates – a man, they said, ‘with the strength of ten tigers’...” A few panels further the caption reads ‘The Phantom moves behind them, as silently as a cat.’ Lee Falk had not yet invented old jungle sayings but you can see where they came from. Suzie offers to help the Phantom escape. Phantom: “Suzie, I’m in a tight spot – I’ve been in tight spots before – I’ve gotten out of them – But I’ve never lied my way out of them…” The Phantom had a similar offer of help from Sala in ‘The Singh Brotherhood’ just before he was led to the vat of boiling oil! (see pages 150 and 151 of No. 1128). The General to Suzie: “Remember, the only one who can help any of my employees to quit is the undertaker.” One of the most dramatic scenes in a Phantom story as the Governor shoots to kill the Phantom, Suzie runs between them and is shot. With Suzie gasping for life on the floor, the Phantom is filled with fury – he swings hard – and the Governor cheats the hangman after all. The saddest sequence Lee Falk ever wrote for a Phantom story, even more compelling than the fate of ‘Queen Asta of Trondelay.’ Commencing on 19 February 1944 Suzie’s request , once read, never forgotten, as she lies dying in a hospital bed. “You’re the first man I’ve ever really loved...yet I’ve never seen your face...will you...let me see...what you really...look like?” And the Phantom unmasks for Suzie on 22 February 1944! Suzie: “You look... As I imagined... You’d look.” This story was published complete by Jim Shepherd in Frew No. 1184 which has one of the finest covers you will ever see. The story was more recently published in issue No. 1623. No. 173 contains the very first publication of the new 1960 daily story ‘The Reporter’ with art by Wilson McCoy. Jungle Patrol territory stretches from the coast for a hundred miles into the jungle – and a thousand miles long, crossing six countries. ‘World’ magazine sends Maggy and Blake to do a story on the Jungle Patrol. Col. Weeks: “We get a thousand applications a week, out of them one or two may make it…” Col. Weeks: “This room is top secret. You broke in here. It is permitted in my orders to put you both against that wall and execute you by this firing squad. Now!” The well sign reads, ‘Well water condemned stay out Commander J.P.’ but at the end of the story the sign has changed to ‘Stay out well water condemned Commander J.P.’ Blake is the second person (after the master spy Heg) to discover the secret of the well and the identity of the Unknown Commander of the Jungle Patrol.

No. 172 contains the first publication of the 1954\/55 Sunday story ‘Alexander’s Diamond Cup’ and the first publication of the 1955 Sunday story ‘The Gibs Brothers’. Both feature art by Wilson McCoy. ‘Alexander’s Diamond Cup’ is the first story to name an ancient artifact, the three thousand year old Alexander’s Diamond Cup, which would eventually end up in the ‘Major Treasure Room.’ Though Lee Falk would not invent the ‘Major Treasure Room’ until he wrote the 1962 Sunday story ‘Treasure of the Skull Cave’ complete in issue No. 1,000. Each year on this night (24 October) the Phantom enters the vault and retrieves a cup and by eerie firelight, watched by silent pygmies, he drinks a toast to his valiant forebears. Phantom “To the first Phantom and all who followed – good rest.” This story was published complete in No. 1219. ‘The Gibs Brothers’ is an incredibly short (5 weeks) Sunday story which Lee Falk seems to have had a lot of fun with. For the first time in a Sunday story “There are nights,” the natives say, “when the Phantom comes out of the Deep Woods – and walks in the town like an ordinary man.” This is one of those nights. This is also the first story in which the Phantom does not appear in his costume. Previously in the 1944 daily story ‘The Spy Gang’ complete in No. 1008 and 1498, the Phantom appeared in his costume only at the end of that story. Phantom to bar man “A bowl of water for my dog and a glass of milk for me, please.” Patron “Well, slap my wrist and call me Chauncey!” The first Sunday old jungle saying (so far located) ‘When the Phantom’s voice grows cold, it is enough to freeze the blood’ – old jungle saying. Phantom “Who are these brothers?” Patron “The meanest and toughest guys on the coast…” The Gibs Brothers are the 18th and 19th giants to face the Phantom! Patron “Wow! Who was that guy! He comes in – orders milk like a mama’s boy – then he mops up the floor with the two toughest guys on the coast! – and makes them mop, in the bargain!” This story was published complete in No. 1167. No. 171 features the second publication of the 1953\/54 daily story ‘The Super Apes’ with art by Wilson McCoy. The story was first published in No. 89 and 90 back in 1956. In this story the well sign reads ‘Poison water do not use Com J.P.’ Colonel Weeks returns in this story but he is not named and referred to only as ‘The Colonel.’ In the 1952 daily story ‘The Jungle Patrol’ complete in No. 1123, Col. Weeks was named as Colonel James! A new legend spreads through the jungle ‘In Llongo land, the Super-Apes tried to destroy him (the Phantom) in a burning place – but they could not.’ This story was published complete in No. 1219. No. 170 features the second publication of the 1953 daily story ‘The Matchmaker’ with art by Wilson McCoy. The story was first published in No. 88 back in 1955. Introducing Aunt Elsie – sister of Lily and Dave Palmer. For the first time (I have not found an earlier reference yet) – Diana keeps a guest room for the Phantom – with two straw mats on the floor (one for Devil) and the window and door are always kept open. Baron Cole joins a long list of suitors for Diana’s hand in marriage. Diana says to Baron Cole “Aunt Elsie’s got all the money – we’re the poor relatives.” The Baron holds Diana to ransom for a million dollars!

No. 172 contains the first publication of the 1954\/55 Sunday story ‘Alexander’s Diamond Cup’ and the first publication of the 1955 Sunday story ‘The Gibs Brothers’. Both feature art by Wilson McCoy. ‘Alexander’s Diamond Cup’ is the first story to name an ancient artifact, the three thousand year old Alexander’s Diamond Cup, which would eventually end up in the ‘Major Treasure Room.’ Though Lee Falk would not invent the ‘Major Treasure Room’ until he wrote the 1962 Sunday story ‘Treasure of the Skull Cave’ complete in issue No. 1,000. Each year on this night (24 October) the Phantom enters the vault and retrieves a cup and by eerie firelight, watched by silent pygmies, he drinks a toast to his valiant forebears. Phantom “To the first Phantom and all who followed – good rest.” This story was published complete in No. 1219. ‘The Gibs Brothers’ is an incredibly short (5 weeks) Sunday story which Lee Falk seems to have had a lot of fun with. For the first time in a Sunday story “There are nights,” the natives say, “when the Phantom comes out of the Deep Woods – and walks in the town like an ordinary man.” This is one of those nights. This is also the first story in which the Phantom does not appear in his costume. Previously in the 1944 daily story ‘The Spy Gang’ complete in No. 1008 and 1498, the Phantom appeared in his costume only at the end of that story. Phantom to bar man “A bowl of water for my dog and a glass of milk for me, please.” Patron “Well, slap my wrist and call me Chauncey!” The first Sunday old jungle saying (so far located) ‘When the Phantom’s voice grows cold, it is enough to freeze the blood’ – old jungle saying. Phantom “Who are these brothers?” Patron “The meanest and toughest guys on the coast…” The Gibs Brothers are the 18th and 19th giants to face the Phantom! Patron “Wow! Who was that guy! He comes in – orders milk like a mama’s boy – then he mops up the floor with the two toughest guys on the coast! – and makes them mop, in the bargain!” This story was published complete in No. 1167. No. 171 features the second publication of the 1953\/54 daily story ‘The Super Apes’ with art by Wilson McCoy. The story was first published in No. 89 and 90 back in 1956. In this story the well sign reads ‘Poison water do not use Com J.P.’ Colonel Weeks returns in this story but he is not named and referred to only as ‘The Colonel.’ In the 1952 daily story ‘The Jungle Patrol’ complete in No. 1123, Col. Weeks was named as Colonel James! A new legend spreads through the jungle ‘In Llongo land, the Super-Apes tried to destroy him (the Phantom) in a burning place – but they could not.’ This story was published complete in No. 1219. No. 170 features the second publication of the 1953 daily story ‘The Matchmaker’ with art by Wilson McCoy. The story was first published in No. 88 back in 1955. Introducing Aunt Elsie – sister of Lily and Dave Palmer. For the first time (I have not found an earlier reference yet) – Diana keeps a guest room for the Phantom – with two straw mats on the floor (one for Devil) and the window and door are always kept open. Baron Cole joins a long list of suitors for Diana’s hand in marriage. Diana says to Baron Cole “Aunt Elsie’s got all the money – we’re the poor relatives.” The Baron holds Diana to ransom for a million dollars! As the Cap points his gun at the Phantom – the Phantom’s hand moves like lightning – then the iron fist.

This story features the very first good mark ring design described as an ‘X’ with two sword hilts facing right and two facing left. In the second ‘X’ ring design the sword hilts all face to the right. Note that Lee Falk describes the good mark design as being ‘crossed swords for protection’ in the 1976 Sunday story ‘The Stolen Ring’ which was published last in No. 1343. Lee Falk notes early in the story that the jungle is filled with Phantom legends such as ‘The Phantom once killed four tigers at the same time, barehanded’ and then proceeds to tell us the legend of ‘The Flying Horse.’ Challenged by the Witchmen The Phantom faces off against the stone idol, Oogooru!.
