Product Description
This volume contains the first three critically acclaimed Moonstone graphic novels of that purple-clad jungle adventurer: The Ghost Killer, The Singh Web, and The Treasures of Bangalla. Plunge headlong into danger with this rollercoaster-ride trio of action packed stories, as the Phantom tries to untangle himself from an exotic raven-haired killing machine, stop a supernatural force from ripping through the land, and then stomps on some thieving pirates just for good measure! Plus: cool introduction/history lesson from Phantom scholar Dr Bryan Shedden, "liner notes" commentary from the authors, and unpublished art from the series! With a new cover painting by the man, Doug Klauba!

 Disapointing November 25, 2003

I am a huge Phantom fan, he's the hero of my childhood, and probably the only comic book hero that has survived the transition. In fact I think he's a better hero than Batman (who by the way I adore). No gadgets, no side kicks. Just his smarts and his pistols. Also The Phantom knows how to have a family life. I remember fondly waiting each Friday afternoon for the paper so that I could get my Phantom fix.
However this treatment by Ben Raab doesn't bring back much nostalgia. It is absolutely is atrocious and does nothing for the character. The dialogue is awful and the story silly...since when did the Phantom talk like a California surfer?
I hope Moostone replaces him as a scribe. And replaces him with someone who actually understands the character.
 The Phantom totally rocks. June 13, 2003

Phantom fans everywhere, look out for this new graphic novel about the Phantom. Before spiderman, superman, batman, or even the justice league, there was the Phantom. He is a purple-clad protector of the jungle. This book is definitly there for anyone looking for action, adventure, or just another superhero to idolize. And if you turn out liking the Phantom, there is also a movie(starring Billy Zane, and Catherine Zeta Jones).
