Diamond Phantom Digest #8


Wishing Everyone a Very Happy Republic Day!!!


Hello Everyone,

Today is the first anniversary of my first post on PBC and as a special treat I am posting Diamond comics Phatom digest #8. 
     It contains one of my favourite Phatom stories, Phantom and the Mysterious Island. As far as I know this was not published in Indrajal Comics due to its anti-Russian stand, during India's socialist period. There are three stories in the comics. One of Phantom, Mahabali Shaka and Chimpoo each. I hope you enjoy all of them as much as I did.

Frew 1587 -The Cabin Boy And The Princess

Writer: Janne Lundstrom
Artist:  Hans Lindahl
Cover: Painter     Felmang

Egmont has a long history of changing and twisting original Falk lore throughout its long and successful history.
The new writer has changed the History: the original of the first Phantom's father is revealed to be somewhat different to what Lee Falk had originally envisioned... a man marroned on an island in the Bahamas, a man imprisoned, and a man marrying one of the local girls.

Tarzan - Rescue at Mount Talamuna - 3D


   Wishing you all very happy and prosperous new year !!! 

           Hi all, I am back from my long absence due to personal problems. Today I am posting next in line of 3D comics. Tarzan's  Rescue at Mount Talamuna - 3D. This is one of the rare 3D comic book I found where story is also good. I hope you enjoy it. As you know about 3D comics, this one will also require special 3D anaglyph glasses to read.

I had scans all ready months ago but editing was done today evening by me and Prabhat. He has shown his magic in non 3D pages.
