It's hard to understand how big it is until it's in hand, but it is a HUUUGE book and looks fantastic. The reprint quality was great.shonokinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10763268507407471807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4705940625481143611.post-83575745180697398812015-07-30T09:34:36.623-07:002015-07-30T09:34:36.623-07:00I didn't know the strip was still going.

The Phantom debuted in 1936, and is credited with being the first of the long underwear heroes.Evan Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07620731784654779358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4705940625481143611.post-62866954714335527032015-07-30T02:40:07.047-07:002015-07-30T02:40:07.047-07:00Looks like some entertaining stuff!

My only real experience with The Ghost Who Walks is the mid-90s movie and a few months of dailies from just a few years ago, when a local newspaper was carrying the current incarnation of the Phantom newspaper strip. Definitely a different feel all together from this era, I don't think the modern version had half the sense of humor and none of the sharp dialogue.
