| Nostalgia overload! The India Tiger Murders, The Adventure of the Jade Maiden, & The Saturnalia of Sin were the first three Phantom Lady stories I ever read, back in the late 50's/early 60s in an IW reprint. |
|
| I'd forgotten how copy-heavy these stories were! Barely enough room for PL to show off her...personality. |
|
| Oh, man, this was a good way to start my day. Exotic stories, great dialogue and outstanding art. Phantom Lady deserved to be much better known |
|
| Um! That's a very....attention-getting cover. Check that guys eyes and facial expression! Wally Wood wasn't the only one who played those kinds of games. Headlights? If you were 10 years old, would you buy this? |
