The costume of the Phantom was right on and saw it in the theater and have it on bluray. I enjoyed the film but many people today never heard of him but thanks to comics it influenced another generation. I used to follow the newspaper comic every day .

The “underpants” thing is actually a reference to the “strong men” at carnivals and whatnot. They wore the onesies and what appeared to be a dark pair of underwear on the outside of their “uniforms” in contrast to their lighter tights.

[@adfnow6270]

There's more to it than that tho.. something most people in modern times don't quite realize, is the actual reason for the outside shorts or trunks. A better term for them would be modesty shorts haha. The creators of these heros costume design intentions , where that the characters are wearing tights, like circus and strongman performers, but also already worn by BALLET artists and if you have every seen a ballet , you would understand why the trunks over the tights would make sense.. It's so we didn't have to look at the characters balls 😳

The Phantom character, history and stories are filled with great action, mysteries and various adventures. It is very interesting that Lee Falk's creation is commonly described as THE first masked comic-book hero, but have since the 1970's and up till modern days been A LOT more loved and respected in Scandinavia (Sweden, Norway, Danmark, Finland), Turkey, India and Australia before his own home country of creating in the U.S.A. So much that Lee Falk before he passed away lent most creation decisions to be made by Swedish/Danish "Egmont Publishing" to make sure The Phantom and his future will live on. And they have done a darn great job doing so. In the 90's and early 00's they published a spin-off series titled: "The Phantom Chronicles" where they explored past generations of Phantoms before the 36th one Kit Walker we all know. They where well written and explored lots of historical events in his history and where certain comic legends came from. LOVED THEM!!! Imagine if they could make a TV-series of these Phantom Chronicles - they would be epic and introduce a new generation of Phantom fans.

You forgot to mention that he has two rings, one with a mark of the skull which gets engraved in the faces of villain's. The other ring was a mark of Phantom protection and he would give the mark on their hands so bad people will not mess with them, I loved the concept. Great video.

[@0anant0]

And the good luck/protection ring was worn on the left hand. Why? Because (as explained in the comics), closer to the heart! :-)

[@samfrito]

Oh wow. I loved the DC comic that showed a different origin with him being beaten, thrown below deck and left for dead. It was a captivating read and he does succeed in getting free and taking back the ship. That was a hell of a mini series. The 96 movie was great too. No one should miss it.

I really enjoyed this movie, and think it's very underrated. I hope it gets rediscovered somehow, this and "The Shadow". The film "The Phantom" was written by Jeff Boam (r.i.p.), who also wrote "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade", and I felt it showed. If you missed this movie before, seek out out. I really miss the superhero movies of the 90's.

Like. Thanks. I first saw Phantom comics in my childhood in 1959 in Rangoon (Myanmar) exactly in "India Illustrated Weekly". He was the first superhero i got familiar, long before Superman and Batman. I was impressed and even draw a few pictures of Phamtom with color pencils. For instance, a picture influenced by the comics where Phantom throws thru the air villain Bruno, a bearded blond giant wearing leopard skins. I was (and still i am, naturally) neither a Burmese nor an Indian, but a European diplomat's son stationed there and I was taken to a local barber-shop. I still have a few issues of "India Illustrated Weekly" of that time stacked somewhere at home and maybe they contain some Phantom comics. But I am not sure. At almost 70 it is a hard task to burrow thru all that old stuff I inherited from my parents.

@@Groza_Dallocort yes it must be something like that because the original phantom comics in sweden were from the original Lee Falk run and after that they used stories from the Italian run of the phantom because the destributor in italy had a licence to create their own stories.

The generation of phantoms-thing is clever, many of the best adventures were historical. Another useful thing is he sometimes "walks the streets like an ordinary man" (Mr Walker) so the angles to come up with stories is infinite.

"There are times when Phantom leaves the jungle, and walks the street like an ordinary man. This is one of those times".

He is not forgotten in Sweden. When I was a kid the Phantom (or Fantomen) was one of the most popular comics, along side donald duck. I subscribed to the comic and got a new one in the mail every friday. Good times. The stories were great too. And the lineage of fantomens were cool to explore, called chronicles. Fantomen were like our version of Batman. Fantomen is Batman but stronger. Not a better detective or more skilled in martial arts, but he is definitely stronger. Like Batman he is a peak human. But Fantomen can knock out anyone with one punch and when someone hits him it's like hitting a wall. It is truly an amazing comic, also great side comics like Thorgal and Camelot 3000. I do wish they would make another movie about the phantom.

[@0anant0]

They made it 'open' in the back -- would cause a painful 'pinch' if you hit your hand accidently while wearing it.

[@realbadger]

I was a major fan of both the Phantom and Mandrake the Magician, both of which our local paper ran. When the Billy Zane film was released, I was greatly looking forward to it. Impressed it was set as a period piece, not just modernized, what thrilled me was its opening title card, _For those who came in late_ as this was at the start of each new story in the daily comics: a story would run for several weeks, and properly conclude, the next day they would run the quick "For those who came in late" (a la "Previously on... the Phantom..."), reminder of his origins.

[@richardrosenthal9552]

Moonstone Comics Phantom book had a full Trade paperback devoted to the story of the first Phantom. The was written by Ben Rabb. I am not sure of the spelling of the last name. That story was the most detailed telling of the origin of the first Phantom ever written. It won awards for everything about it. I own a copy of it and consider it one of my favorite books. The Phantom like the Shadow has always been an under appreciated comic book hero. The Billy Zane movie never got the kind of preadvertising that other movies got leading to the poor box office. I would like to see another try for both the Phantom and the Shadow taken with full backing to make them successful.

[@0anant0]

The Avon novel by Lee Falk about 21st Phantom is also really good -- talks about how the young Kit when to America, etc

As far as the fact number 1 goes Lee Falk intended for Phantom's costume to be gray (as he is the ghost who walks) put the later colour prints made him purple. Falk didn't like this at first but later accepted the palette swap.
