Slam Evil: Billy Zane & Australia's First Big Blockbuster

Throughout history superheroes tend to have a bit of white saviour-ism about them. Which is why The Phantom’s fandom outside of a white audience is so damn fascinating! We’re exploring how our purple hero cam to be loved by Indigenous Australians. Plus we head to the West Highlands of Papua New Guinea where The Ghost Who Walks was painted onto wooden shields of the Wahgi people. Not for art, but for defense and intimidation during periods of inter-tribal fighting.

Uncle Kit: Phantom's Black Fandom

As WWII ends the first superhero grows into a hero for more than his white audiences. After criticism Black characters were depicted as "ignorant, superstitious coloured people", Falk and The Phantom artists move to correct the racial caricatures of the early Phantom stories. Plus we dive into the impact first and second wave feminism has on the female characters of the strip, and the phenomenal global impact our purple-suited hero begins to have: with three countries in particular… Sweden, India… and Australia! And one of the most influential Phantom comic artists, now 92-year-old Seymour (Sy) Barry joins the podcast to blow your MIND with stories from this period of incredible change.

The Ghost Who Walks Goes Global

We're taking a peek behind the mask at the lives of the men who created our purple hero. We speak to Lee Falk’s daughter Valerie about her father and his creations, take you through the lives of the early artists who worked on the strip, explore the indelible effect WWII has on the world of The Phantom – and how The Ghost Who Walks inspired resistance movements across Europe against the Nazis. Plus a little tidbit about one of the founding father’s of cinema Frederico Fellini being obsessed with The Phantom. But you’ll have to listen to find out!

Fantomen: Serial Killers, Xanadu, & Hitler's Lawsuit

Geek culture IS popular culture now. And in the next 15 years, we’ll hit the point where superheroes as a concept have been around for a century. But you know what’s weird? Not many people know about the masked vigilante who started it all: The very first super hero. The Phantom. We're taking you into the murky world of publishing in the early 20th century (like Mafia murky) and into the origin story of the purple suit wearing, jungle dwelling, justice seeking hero; Kit Walker a.k.a. The Phantom
