The present Phantom is the 21st in the line. Unlike most costumed heroes, he has no [[superhuman]] powers, relying only on his wits, physical strength, skill with his weapons, and fearsome reputation to fight crime. His real name is '''Kit Walker'''. References to "'''Mr. Walker'''" are in the strip often accompanied by a footnote saying "For 'The Ghost Who Walks'", although some versions of the Phantom's history suggest that Walker was actually the original surname of the man who became the first Phantom.

===Origin===
===Origin==he is in sc but not much showeb there.]]
The story of the Phantom started with a young sailor named Christopher Walker (sometimes called Christopher Standish in certain versions of the story<ref>''The Singh Brotherhood'' (1936), by Lee Falk and Ray Moore</ref>). Christopher was born in 1516 in [[Portsmouth]].<ref>The First Phanton (Fantomet #10/1985), by Claes Reimerthi and Kari Leppänen</ref> His father, also named Christopher Walker, had been a seaman since he was a young boy, and was the cabin boy on [[Christopher Columbus]]' ship, the ''[[Santa María (ship)|Santa María]]'', when he sailed to the Americas. Christopher Jr. became a shipboy on his father's ship in 1526.

In 1536, when Christopher was 20 years old, he was a part of what was supposed to be his father's last voyage. The ship was attacked by pirates and Christopher's father was murdered. He was the sole survivor and was washed ashore on a Bengalla beach, where he was found by pygmies of the Bandar tribe, who nursed him back to health and took care of him.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://weirdscifi.ratiosemper.com/phantom/about.html |title=The Phantom – For Those Who Came in Late |publisher=Weirdscifi.ratiosemper.com |access-date=2011-02-28 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110724032727/http://weirdscifi.ratiosemper.com/phantom/about.html |archive-date=July 24, 2011 }}</ref> He vows revenge on "the destruction of piracy, greed, cruelty, and injustice, in all their forms!"<ref>{{cite web |last=Lasiuta |first=Tim |url=http://thenostalgialeague.com/cr/phantom.html |title=The Phantom is Dead...Long Live the Phantom |publisher=Thenostalgialeague.com |access-date=2011-02-28 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110225121248/http://www.thenostalgialeague.com/cr/phantom.html |archive-date=February 25, 2011 }}</ref>

The Bandars showed Christopher to a cave, which resembled a human skull in appearance. Christopher later carved the features out to enhance this. This [[Skull Cave]] became his home.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.kingfeatures.com/features/comics/phantom/about.htm |title=King Features Syndicate – Comics |publisher=Kingfeatures.com |access-date=2011-02-28 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110406120104/http://www.kingfeatures.com/features/comics/phantom/about.htm |archive-date=April 6, 2011 }}</ref>

Wearing a costume based on the demon god, Christopher became the first of what would later be known as the Phantom. When he died, his son took over for him, when the second Phantom died, his son took over, and so on. So it would go on through the centuries, causing people to believe that the Phantom was immortal. These people gave him nicknames including "The Ghost Who Walks" and "The Man Who Cannot Die".<ref>''The First Phantom'' (1975), by Lee Falk and Sy Barry</ref>

His base is in the Deep Woods of Bengali (originally "Bengalla", or "[[Bangalla]]" and renamed ''Denkali'' in the Indian edition<ref name="wsbm">{{cite web|url=http://www.outlookindia.com/article.aspx?207314 |title=White Skin, Black Mask |publisher=www.outlookindia.com |access-date=2011-02-28}}</ref>), a [[fictional country]] initially said to be set in Asia, near India, but depicted as in Africa during and after the 1960s. The Phantom's base is the fabled [[Skull Cave]], where all of the previous Phantoms are buried.

The Phantom is the commander of Bangalla's Jungle Patrol.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://weirdscifi.ratiosemper.com/phantom/strip.html |title=The Phantom – The Comic Strip |publisher=Weirdscifi.ratiosemper.com |date=February 17, 1936 |access-date=2011-02-28 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110724032757/http://weirdscifi.ratiosemper.com/phantom/strip.html |archive-date=July 24, 2011 }}</ref> Because of a betrayal leading to the death of the 14th Phantom, the identity of the commander has been kept hidden from members of the patrol ever since. The Phantom uses several ways to stay in contact. These include radio and a safe with a false bottom.

The character was created by [[Lee Falk]] for the adventure [[comic strip]] ''[[The Phantom]]'', which debuted in newspapers on February 17, 1936.

Because he seems to have existed for generations, many believe him to be immortal. In reality, the Phantom is a [[legacy hero]], descended from 20 previous generations of crimefighters who all adopt the same persona. When a new Phantom takes the task from his dying father, he swears the Oath of the Skull: "I swear to devote my life to the destruction of piracy, greed, cruelty, and injustice, in all their forms, and my sons and their sons shall follow me". The first Phantom married Christina, the daughter of a Norwegian sea captain, Eric the Rover. The second Phantom married Marabella, the granddaughter of [[Christopher Columbus]].<ref>''The name'', by Lee Falk Issue 1,000 1979</ref> The comic sometimes runs [[Flashback (narrative)|flashback]] adventures of previous Phantoms written by various authors who sometimes confuse Phantom history. Current stories have Marabella as the daughter of Columbus and marrying the first Phantom.<ref>''Captain Walkers Log Book'', by Claes Reimerthi No. 1141</ref><ref>''Marabella'', by Claes Reimerthi No. 1192</ref> As Columbus died in 1506 while, according to the new history, Marabella first meets the Phantom in 1544, this results in another inconsistency, requiring her to be at least 38 years old despite being depicted as in her early 20s. Inconsistencies in storylines and histories are not corrected as a mark of respect to authors, but Falk's original history takes precedence.<ref>''The Marabella Mystery'', by Jim Shepherd No. 1192</ref> Although most of the Phantoms have been male, there has been one woman who took up the role: Julie Walker, twin sister of the 17th Phantom.

''The Phantom'' #20, King Comics, January 1967.</ref> The present Phantom is the 21st in the line. Unlike most costumed heroes, he has no [[superhuman]] powers, relying only on his wits, physical strength, skill with his weapons, and fearsome reputation to fight crime. His real name is '''Kit Walker'''. References to "'''Mr. Walker'''" are in the strip often accompanied by a footnote saying "For 'The Ghost Who Walks'", although some versions of the Phantom's history suggest that Walker was actually the original surname of the man who became the first Phantom. ===Origin=== The story of the Phantom started with a young sailor named Christopher Walker (sometimes called Christopher Standish in certain versions of the story<ref>''The Singh Brotherhood'' (1936), by Lee Falk and Ray Moore</ref>). Christopher was born in 1516 in [[Portsmouth]].<ref>The First Phanton (Fantomet #10/1985), by Claes Reimerthi and Kari Leppänen</ref> His father, also named Christopher Walker, had been a seaman since he was a young boy, and was the cabin boy on [[Christopher Columbus]]' ship, the ''[[Santa María (ship)|Santa María]]'', when he sailed to the Americas. Christopher Jr. became a shipboy on his father's ship in 1526. In 1536, when Christopher was 20 years old, he was a part of what was supposed to be his father's last voyage. The ship was attacked by pirates and Christopher's father was murdered. He was the sole survivor and was washed ashore on a Bengalla beach, where he was found by pygmies of the Bandar tribe, who nursed him back to health and took care of him.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://weirdscifi.ratiosemper.com/phantom/about.html |title=The Phantom – For Those Who Came in Late |publisher=Weirdscifi.ratiosemper.com |access-date=2011-02-28 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110724032727/http://weirdscifi.ratiosemper.com/phantom/about.html |archive-date=July 24, 2011 }}</ref> He vows revenge on "the destruction of piracy, greed, cruelty, and injustice, in all their forms!"<ref>{{cite web |last=Lasiuta |first=Tim |url=http://thenostalgialeague.com/cr/phantom.html |title=The Phantom is Dead...Long Live the Phantom |publisher=Thenostalgialeague.com |access-date=2011-02-28 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110225121248/http://www.thenostalgialeague.com/cr/phantom.html |archive-date=February 25, 2011 }}</ref> The Bandars showed Christopher to a cave, which resembled a human skull in appearance.

Green countries have regular ''Phantom'' publications, while blue countries print the dailies/Sundays in newspapers.]] ===Kit Walker, the 21st Phantom=== The 21st Phantom's birth name is Kit Walker, as was the name of many of the Phantoms before him. Kit was born in the [[Skull Cave]] and spent his first years in the jungle of Bangalla. His mother, Maud Thorne McPatrick, who had previously worked as [[Rita Hayworth]]'s stunt double, was born in Mississippi, where Kit was sent to study when he was 12 years old, living with his aunt Lucy and uncle Jasper in the town of [[Clarksville, Missouri]]. Here he met his wife-to-be, [[Diana Palmer (The Phantom)|Diana Palmer]]. Kit was an extremely talented sportsman and was predicted to become the world champion in many different events (even knocking out the world heavyweight boxing champion in a sparring match when the champion visited Clarksville). Despite the opportunity to choose practically any career he wanted, Kit faithfully returned to Bengalla to take over the role of the Phantom when he received word from Guran that his father was dying from a knife-wound.<ref>"Childhood of the Phantom" (1959) by Lee Falk and Wilson McCoy</ref> One of Kit's first missions as the Phantom was to find his father's killer, Rama Singh, who had betrayed and murdered the 20th Phantom by first helping him to blow up a fleet of ships owned by the Singh Brotherhood, only to then stab him in the back, stealing his special gunbelt in the process. The 21st Phantom eventually found him and reclaimed the belt at the island of Gullique, but before he could avenge his father and bring the killer to jail, the desperate Rama blew up his lair, killing himself and his henchmen in the process.<ref>"The Belt" (1954) by Lee Falk and Wilson McCoy</ref> The Phantom has two animal helpers, a mountain wolf named Devil and a horse named Hero. He also has a trained falcon named Fraka. From 1962 on, The Phantom raised an orphan named "Rex King", who was later revealed to be the prince of the kingdom of Baronkhan. He also has two dolphins named Solomon and Nefertiti, and numerous other animals kept on the island of Eden. In 1978, he married his sweetheart, Diana Palmer, who works at the United Nations. The Phantom and Diana have two children, Kit and Heloise.<ref>"The Name" by Lee Falk and Sy Barry. September 9 – December 9, 1979.</ref> His chief aide and ally is [[Guran]], chief of the local [[pygmy]] Bandar tribe, who are the only tribe to know the Phantom's true nature. Guran is the Phantom's best friend since childhood and a supporter of his cause. Other allies of the 21st Phantom include Doctor Axel, a Scandinavian doctor working in Bangalla,<ref>"Dr. Axel and the Witchmen", Lee Falk and Wilson McCoy, August 1 – October 8, 1955.</ref> and Miss Tagama, the African teacher of Rex, Kit and Heloise.<ref>"Yes", Lee Falk and Sy Barry, December 7, 1970 – February 13, 1971.</ref> ===Costume and weapons=== As part of the official uniform, the Phantom wears a black [[domino mask]] and a purple skintight bodysuit. He also carries period-appropriate [[Sidearm (weapon)|sidearms]], currently two [[M1911 pistol]]s<ref>{{cite web|url=http://members.tripod.com/ComradesInArms/comics/phantom/phantom.htm |title=The Phantom -adapted by Corinth |publisher=Members.tripod.com |access-date=2011-02-28}}</ref> in a special belt with a skull-like buckle. Falk has insisted that the Phantom only uses his guns to shoot out the guns of his opponents, a fact that writer [[Peter David]] was unaware of when he wrote [[DC Comics]]' 1988 four-issue ''Phantom'' [[miniseries]], in which he had the Phantom shoot to wound his enemies.<ref>Peter David. "But I Digress..." ''Comics Buyer's Guide '' #1325; April 9, 1999; Page 58</ref> However, there are some early instances (in the Lee Falk strips) of the Phantom using his guns to shoot and kill people (sometimes in self-defense). While there had been masked crime fighters like the costumed [[Zorro]], [[The Shadow]], or the business-suited [[Clock (comics)|The Clock]], the Phantom was the first fictional character to wear the skintight costume and eyes with no visible pupils that has become a trademark of [[superheroes]]. Creator Lee Falk had originally envisioned a gray costume and even considered naming his creation "The Gray Ghost". It was not until the Phantom [[Sunday strip]] debuted in 1939 that the costume was shown to be purple. Falk, however, continued to refer to the costume as gray in the text of the strip on several occasions afterward, but finally accepted the purple color.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.deepwoods.org/purple.html |title=The Phantom Reference Guide: "A Purple Phantom?", by Bryan Shedden |publisher=Deepwoods.org |access-date=2011-02-28}}</ref> In a Sunday strip story published in the 1960s it was shown that the first Phantom chose the costume based on the appearance of a jungle idol, and colored the cloth with purple jungle berries. As part of a modernization of the character in the Moonstone Books' series, ''The Phantom: Ghost Who Walks'', the Phantom began wearing a costume made of [[kevlar]].<ref>Tate, Ray.

One has a pattern formed like four crossing sabres, "The Good Mark", that he leaves on visitors whom he befriends, placing the person under his protection. The other, "The Evil Mark" or "Skull Mark" has a skull shape, which leaves a scar of the corresponding shape on the enemies he punches with it. He wears the Good Mark on his left hand because it is closer to the heart, and the Evil Mark on his right hand. According to the Team Fantomen stories, the Skull Ring was given to the first Phantom by [[Paracelsus]].<ref>"The Ring" by Ulf Granberg and Jaime Vallvé, ''The Phantom'', Frew Publications, December 20, 2002.</ref> The original owner of the Skull Ring was [[Emperor Nero]] of the [[Roman empire]] and it would later be revealed that the ring had been made from the nails that hung Jesus to the cross. The Good Mark ring was made after the sixth Phantom founded the Jungle Patrol.<ref>''The ring of Death'', by Claes Reimerthi and Kari Leppännen</ref> ===Enemies=== The most dangerous and lasting enemy of the Phantom is the Singh Brotherhood, active for centuries and responsible for the death of the 21st Phantom's father.<ref name="hhc">Hubert H.

Katzman, having been forced to delete many of the action scenes from ''The Phantom'', filled the gaps with scenes from two more old serials, ''[[The Desert Hawk (serial)|The Desert Hawk]]'' and ''[[Jungle Menace]]''.

Many elements of the Phantom myth were parodied, such as him being "Mr Walker, the man who cannot drive". In 2017, Australian comedian [[Sammy J]] began touring with a new show, ''Hero Complex'', in which he pays tribute to what he says is the role the Phantom has played in his life: "a chance encounter set off a chain of events that led to me meeting my wife and ended with police searching my attic".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2017/mar/28/sammy-j-the-phantom-may-be-a-dud-superhero-but-he-changed-my-life|title = Sammy J: The Phantom may be a dud superhero – but he changed my life|date = March 28, 2017}}</ref> ''Hero Complex'' has won a "Best Comedy" award or nomination in every festival in which it has featured.

However, The Phantom Limb is a villainous character. The myth surrounding the Phantom also provided Turkish humorists with a lot of material. The humor magazine ''[[Leman (magazine)|Leman]]'' has published many comic strips some of which were inspired by the (imaginary) saying "in the jungle, it is rumored that the Phantom has the strength of ten tigers" where Phantom runs into trouble with 11 or more tigers. The Phantom was parodied in a 2007 episode of ''[[Robot Chicken]]'' titled "[[Werewolf vs. Unicorn]]", where he appeared alongside Flash Gordon and Mandrake the Magician.

The documentary was released on DVD in 2006. To promote the 1996 Paramount Phantom movie, an [[HBO]] special called "Making of The Phantom" was made. It featured behind-the-scenes information on the movie and the comic. An original documentary presentation called ''History of the Phantom'' was shown at the [[Mid-Atlantic Nostalgia Convention]] in September 2008. ====''MythBusters'' "Superhero Hour"==== On ''[[MythBusters]]'' season 5, episode 17 "Superhero Hour", it was tested whether the Phantom's skull ring would make an imprint on someone when you punch them while wearing it, as it did in the comic. The result was that the myth was "busted", in that hitting a person in the face hard enough to leave a ring imprint on the skin required more than enough force to crush a human skull.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://mythbustersresults.com/episode86 |title=MythBusters Episode 86: Superhero Hour |publisher=Mythbustersresults.com |access-date=2011-02-28}}</ref> In the comic, it had been revealed that the Phantom's ring actually had sharp edges and was covered with a permanent ink synthesized from plants found in the depths of the Bengallan jungle, leaving a permanent scar-like mark. It was, in effect, an instant tattoo. ===Video games=== {{See also|Phantom 2040 (video game)}} The Phantom has appeared as a playable character in two video games, ''[[Phantom 2040 (video game)|Phantom 2040]]'' and ''[[Defenders of the Earth]]''.

The game had a complex storyline and featured several different endings, which were dependent on the choices the player made during the game. In 2003, a video game made for [[Game Boy Advance]] was announced, called "The Phantom: The Ghost Who Walks".

The character was created by [[Lee Falk]] for the adventure [[comic strip]] ''[[The Phantom]]'', which debuted in newspapers on February 17, 1936.

[[Tony DePaul]] and [[Claes Reimerthi]] alternated as writers of the daily and Sunday newspaper strips, respectively. DePaul would later become the sole writer of the strip. In 2000, Olesen and Fredericks retired from the Sunday strip, which was then taken over by artist [[Graham Nolan]].

Because he seems to have existed for generations, many believe him to be immortal. In reality, the Phantom is a [[legacy hero]], descended from 20 previous generations of crimefighters who all adopt the same persona. When a new Phantom takes the task from his dying father, he swears the Oath of the Skull: "I swear to devote my life to the destruction of piracy, greed, cruelty, and injustice, in all their forms, and my sons and their sons shall follow me". The first Phantom married Christina, the daughter of a Norwegian sea captain, Eric the Rover. The second Phantom married Marabella, the granddaughter of [[Christopher Columbus]].<ref>''The name'', by Lee Falk Issue 1,000 1979</ref> The comic sometimes runs [[Flashback (narrative)|flashback]] adventures of previous Phantoms written by various authors who sometimes confuse Phantom history. Current stories have Marabella as the daughter of Columbus and marrying the first Phantom.<ref>''Captain Walkers Log Book'', by Claes Reimerthi No. 1141</ref><ref>''Marabella'', by Claes Reimerthi No. 1192</ref> As Columbus died in 1506 while, according to the new history, Marabella first meets the Phantom in 1544, this results in another inconsistency, requiring her to be at least 38 years old despite being depicted as in her early 20s. Inconsistencies in storylines and histories are not corrected as a mark of respect to authors, but Falk's original history takes precedence.<ref>''The Marabella Mystery'', by Jim Shepherd No. 1192</ref> Although most of the Phantoms have been male, there has been one woman who took up the role: Julie Walker, twin sister of the 17th Phantom. While her brother was injured, Julie donned the Phantom costume and defeated a band of pirates.<ref>"The Female Phantom", by Lee Falk and Wilson McCoy, July 20 – October 12, 1952.</ref><ref>"The Adventures of the Girl Phantom", by Dick Wood and Bill Lignante. ''The Phantom'' #20, King Comics, January 1967.</ref> The present Phantom is the 21st in the line. Unlike most costumed heroes, he has no [[superhuman]] powers, relying only on his wits, physical strength, skill with his weapons, and fearsome reputation to fight crime. His real name is '''Kit Walker'''. References to "'''Mr. Walker'''" are in the strip often accompanied by a footnote saying "For 'The Ghost Who Walks'", although some versions of the Phantom's history suggest that Walker was actually the original surname of the man who became the first Phantom. ===Origin==he is in sc but not much showeb there.]] ===Kit Walker, the 21st Phantom=== The 21st Phantom's birth name is Kit Walker, as was the name of many of the Phantoms before him. Kit was born in the [[Skull Cave]] and spent his first years in the jungle of Bangalla. His mother, Maud Thorne McPatrick, who had previously worked as [[Rita Hayworth]]'s stunt double, was born in Mississippi, where Kit was sent to study when he was 12 years old, living with his aunt Lucy and uncle Jasper in the town of [[Clarksville, Missouri]]. Here he met his wife-to-be, [[Diana Palmer (The Phantom)|Diana Palmer]]. Kit was an extremely talented sportsman and was predicted to become the world champion in many different events (even knocking out the world heavyweight boxing champion in a sparring match when the champion visited Clarksville). Despite the opportunity to choose practically any career he wanted, Kit faithfully returned to Bengalla to take over the role of the Phantom when he received word from Guran that his father was dying from a knife-wound.<ref>"Childhood of the Phantom" (1959) by Lee Falk and Wilson McCoy</ref> One of Kit's first missions as the Phantom was to find his father's killer, Rama Singh, who had betrayed and murdered the 20th Phantom by first helping him to blow up a fleet of ships owned by the Singh Brotherhood, only to then stab him in the back, stealing his special gunbelt in the process. The 21st Phantom eventually found him and reclaimed the belt at the island of Gullique, but before he could avenge his father and bring the killer to jail, the desperate Rama blew up his lair, killing himself and his henchmen in the process.<ref>"The Belt" (1954) by Lee Falk and Wilson McCoy</ref> The Phantom has two animal helpers, a mountain wolf named Devil and a horse named Hero. He also has a trained falcon named Fraka. From 1962 on, The Phantom raised an orphan named "Rex King", who was later revealed to be the prince of the kingdom of Baronkhan. He also has two dolphins named Solomon and Nefertiti, and numerous other animals kept on the island of Eden. In 1978, he married his sweetheart, Diana Palmer, who works at the United Nations. The Phantom and Diana have two children, Kit and Heloise.<ref>"The Name" by Lee Falk and Sy Barry. September 9 – December 9, 1979.</ref> His chief aide and ally is [[Guran]], chief of the local [[pygmy]] Bandar tribe, who are the only tribe to know the Phantom's true nature. Guran is the Phantom's best friend since childhood and a supporter of his cause. Other allies of the 21st Phantom include Doctor Axel, a Scandinavian doctor working in Bangalla,<ref>"Dr. Axel and the Witchmen", Lee Falk and Wilson McCoy, August 1 – October 8, 1955.</ref> and Miss Tagama, the African teacher of Rex, Kit and Heloise.<ref>"Yes", Lee Falk and Sy Barry, December 7, 1970 – February 13, 1971.</ref> ===Costume and weapons=== As part of the official uniform, the Phantom wears a black [[domino mask]] and a purple skintight bodysuit. He also carries period-appropriate [[Sidearm (weapon)|sidearms]], currently two [[M1911 pistol]]s<ref>{{cite web|url=http://members.tripod.com/ComradesInArms/comics/phantom/phantom.htm |title=The Phantom -adapted by Corinth |publisher=Members.tripod.com |access-date=2011-02-28}}</ref> in a special belt with a skull-like buckle. Falk has insisted that the Phantom only uses his guns to shoot out the guns of his opponents, a fact that writer [[Peter David]] was unaware of when he wrote [[DC Comics]]' 1988 four-issue ''Phantom'' [[miniseries]], in which he had the Phantom shoot to wound his enemies.<ref>Peter David. "But I Digress..." ''Comics Buyer's Guide '' #1325; April 9, 1999; Page 58</ref> However, there are some early instances (in the Lee Falk strips) of the Phantom using his guns to shoot and kill people (sometimes in self-defense). While there had been masked crime fighters like the costumed [[Zorro]], [[The Shadow]], or the business-suited [[Clock (comics)|The Clock]], the Phantom was the first fictional character to wear the skintight costume and eyes with no visible pupils that has become a trademark of [[superheroes]]. Creator Lee Falk had originally envisioned a gray costume and even considered naming his creation "The Gray Ghost". It was not until the Phantom [[Sunday strip]] debuted in 1939 that the costume was shown to be purple. Falk, however, continued to refer to the costume as gray in the text of the strip on several occasions afterward, but finally accepted the purple color.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.deepwoods.org/purple.html |title=The Phantom Reference Guide: "A Purple Phantom?", by Bryan Shedden |publisher=Deepwoods.org |access-date=2011-02-28}}</ref> In a Sunday strip story published in the 1960s it was shown that the first Phantom chose the costume based on the appearance of a jungle idol, and colored the cloth with purple jungle berries. As part of a modernization of the character in the Moonstone Books' series, ''The Phantom: Ghost Who Walks'', the Phantom began wearing a costume made of [[kevlar]].<ref>Tate, Ray.

One has a pattern formed like four crossing sabres, "The Good Mark", that he leaves on visitors whom he befriends, placing the person under his protection. The other, "The Evil Mark" or "Skull Mark" has a skull shape, which leaves a scar of the corresponding shape on the enemies he punches with it. He wears the Good Mark on his left hand because it is closer to the heart, and the Evil Mark on his right hand.

Katzman, unwilling to meet the rights holder's high price, reshot much of the action with Hart in a vaguely similar costume (helmet, mask, sweater, and riding breeches) to match the old footage with Tom Tyler. Katzman, having been forced to delete many of the action scenes from ''The Phantom'', filled the gaps with scenes from two more old serials, ''[[The Desert Hawk (serial)|The Desert Hawk]]'' and ''[[Jungle Menace]]''.

The Phantom was voiced by actor [[Scott Valentine (actor)|Scott Valentine]] and [[J. D. Hall|J.D.Hall]] played The Phantom's mentor ''Guran''.

Many elements of the Phantom myth were parodied, such as him being "Mr Walker, the man who cannot drive". In 2017, Australian comedian [[Sammy J]] began touring with a new show, ''Hero Complex'', in which he pays tribute to what he says is the role the Phantom has played in his life: "a chance encounter set off a chain of events that led to me meeting my wife and ended with police searching my attic".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2017/mar/28/sammy-j-the-phantom-may-be-a-dud-superhero-but-he-changed-my-life|title = Sammy J: The Phantom may be a dud superhero – but he changed my life|date = March 28, 2017}}</ref> ''Hero Complex'' has won a "Best Comedy" award or nomination in every festival in which it has featured. In the [[Adult Swim]] show ''[[The Venture Bros.]]'', the character [[Phantom Limb (character)|The Phantom Limb]] bears a strong visual resemblance to the Phantom, right down to the same purple suit and mask, except that the Phantom Limb's limbs are invisible, making him look like a floating torso. However, The Phantom Limb is a villainous character. The myth surrounding the Phantom also provided Turkish humorists with a lot of material. The humor magazine ''[[Leman (magazine)|Leman]]'' has published many comic strips some of which were inspired by the (imaginary) saying "in the jungle, it is rumored that the Phantom has the strength of ten tigers" where Phantom runs into trouble with 11 or more tigers. The Phantom was parodied in a 2007 episode of ''[[Robot Chicken]]'' titled "[[Werewolf vs. Unicorn]]", where he appeared alongside Flash Gordon and Mandrake the Magician. He was voiced by [[Frank Welker]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1084806/|title=Werewolf vs. Unicorn|date=August 12, 2007|via=www.imdb.com}}</ref> The Phantom was a frequently appearing character in the Finnish [[comic strip]] ''[[Fingerpori]]'' by [[Pertti Jarla]]. He was often involved in humorous situations such as using his throne as a toilet seat. ====Documentaries==== In 1996, the [[A&E Network]] created a documentary about the history of the Phantom for television, called ''The Phantom: Comic Strip Crusader''. Narrated by [[Peter Graves (actor)|Peter Graves]], it featured interviews with creator Lee Falk, actors [[Billy Zane]] and [[Kristy Swanson]], director [[Simon Wincer]], Frew-editor Jim Shepherd, George Olesen, Keith Williams, and president of the US Phantom fan club ''Friends of the Phantom'', Ed Rhoades. The documentary was released on DVD in 2006. To promote the 1996 Paramount Phantom movie, an [[HBO]] special called "Making of The Phantom" was made. It featured behind-the-scenes information on the movie and the comic. An original documentary presentation called ''History of the Phantom'' was shown at the [[Mid-Atlantic Nostalgia Convention]] in September 2008. ====''MythBusters'' "Superhero Hour"==== On ''[[MythBusters]]'' season 5, episode 17 "Superhero Hour", it was tested whether the Phantom's skull ring would make an imprint on someone when you punch them while wearing it, as it did in the comic. The result was that the myth was "busted", in that hitting a person in the face hard enough to leave a ring imprint on the skin required more than enough force to crush a human skull.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://mythbustersresults.com/episode86 |title=MythBusters Episode 86: Superhero Hour |publisher=Mythbustersresults.com |access-date=2011-02-28}}</ref> In the comic, it had been revealed that the Phantom's ring actually had sharp edges and was covered with a permanent ink synthesized from plants found in the depths of the Bengallan jungle, leaving a permanent scar-like mark. It was, in effect, an instant tattoo. ===Video games=== {{See also|Phantom 2040 (video game)}} The Phantom has appeared as a playable character in two video games, ''[[Phantom 2040 (video game)|Phantom 2040]]'' and ''[[Defenders of the Earth]]''. Both were based on the animated series with the same titles. However, in Defenders of the Earth, the Phantom was not the only [[Player character|playable character]], as players were given the choice to control Mandrake the Magician and Flash Gordon as well. In ''Phantom 2040'', released on [[Sega Genesis]], [[Game Gear]], and [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|Super NES]], the Phantom was the only playable character. He had use of a number of his special skills and high-tech gadgets from the Phantom 2040 TV-series. The game had a complex storyline and featured several different endings, which were dependent on the choices the player made during the game. In 2003, a video game made for [[Game Boy Advance]] was announced, called "The Phantom: The Ghost Who Walks". It was developed by [[7th Sense]] and produced by Microids, and it was described as a free-roaming jungle adventure.<ref>{{cite web|last=Calvert |first=Justin |url=http://www.gamespot.com/gba/adventure/phantomtheghostwhowalks/news.html?sid=2901655&om_act=convert&om_clk=gsupdates&tag=updates;title;2 |title=First look: The Phantom: The Ghost Who Walks – Game Boy Advance News |publisher=Gamespot.com |date=December 13, 2002 |access-date=2011-02-28}}</ref> During the development process, Microids went bankrupt, and the game was never released.
