The Phantom Future


Book Description

Excerpt from The Phantom Future: A Novel The phantom future is an early and im mature attempt which has at some trouble and expense been withdrawn from circulation in England. Seeing that under existing copyright law the book is unprotected in the United States from the unauthorized enterprise of certain pub lishers, the author finds himself practically forced to issue an edition of this and other early works. He does this in full consciousness of a hundred defects which the most careful revision cannot eliminate. The book has been corrected by the author, who now submits it to the generosity of the critic and the good sense of the reader with the assurance that had he been in a position to choose he would not have sought this indulgence.

Phantom Lady Archives vol 2 (1947 - 1949)


Book Description

Phantom Lady featured the character of Sandra Knight, aka, the Phantom Lady, a character formerly published by Quality Comics. This series continus the numbering sequence from Wotalife Comics and continues as My Love Secret following issue #23. Phantom Lady appeared in Police Comics #1 to 23, and Feature Comics #69-71, where she teamed up with Spider-Widow. Phantom Lady's more modest (!) Quality Comics lookPhantom Lady then jumped ship from Quality, when the (now simply) Iger Studio recostumed her for use by Fox Features Syndicate, who gave the character her own title, Phantom Lady, which lasted from #1 (August, 1947) to #26 (April 1949). She also guested in All-Top Comics #8 to #15. Shortly afterwards, Fox went bust. Star Comics bought the rights to the Fox characters, and had Phantom lady turn up in a couple of their comics, then Farrell Publications got hold of her, and produced four issues of their own Phantom Lady series (unlike many of the characters they revived from other companies, they kept both costume and true identity unchanged). Eventually Charlton bought up most of the Fox characters, presumably including Phantom Lady. This Volume covers Phantom Lady adventures from 1947 - 1949 Approx 365 pages
