I finally got round to collecting the pages for a second Phantom Circle story.  This is an improved and extended compilation with a cover, 2 stories and an info page.  For those who enjoy masked, robed, hooded groups in schools, you'll find it here:-

Yeah, when I read his comment I thought, "Were there any white hooded groups?"

Then I thought maybe someone should make a parody of those groups, perhaps called something like the Knitting Knights of Knockwurst, and they fought a villain called Black Tom?" 

These days of course people would ignore the intended parody and pretend to take offense at it.

As you know, I too am a fan of school secret society comics. Thanks for collecting these stories for us. The artwork changes radically between stories. The first uses the somewhat stodgy heavily-crosshatched style I associate with this sort of comic (stodgy, but I like it), while the second takes a much more open approach, as if drawn for color.

The secret society concept must have struck a chord with readers back in the day. There seem to have been lots of them--and you say they date back to the 1930s! Do you know if The Green Feather was the first?

I think so but there were similar characters and groups in the predecessor prose pocket libraries. An interesting wee project
