Introductions!

[AmanKing]

I was a massive Phantom fan during the 1990s (actually from probably the late 1980s right through until about 2002), though kind of dropped out of the scene once university kicked in.

Hi Daniel, I remember you from way back (or at least I think it was you). That is, I remember you from the late 1990s and early 2000s, when you had a web presence, possibly on Phantom websites (did you have a website of your own too?) and forums/chat.

Good to see familiar folks again. I myself have been out of the Phantom scene for a while, but am trying to get back in.

Hi Aman, I thought your name sounded familiar. I ran a website called "The Ph@ntom" back in the late 1990s and early 2000s which (from what I remember) included a chat program, but not sure about a forum. I may have also traded a few issues with you (as I have a handful of Indian comics).

[Daniel Leahy]

Welcome Daniel!

I've had similar instances where I've come in and out of various hobbies. Comics is actually the only once that's been a constant for me. Still, even if you're not buying the comics doesn't mean you can't still chat about the character so you're welcome here any time. Hope you enjoy your stay.

Cheers Joe, much appreciated! I've been enjoying my last week or so here, a great place!

Any chance of making this Introductions thread an 'Announcement' or 'Sticky' thread?

[JoeMD]

Done, sir. Also noticed that the quick reply isn't available here, so I'll go fix that up too.

Hello all. Ive just joined. Ive been collecting Frew Phantoms for around 35 years on and off. No, my collection is far from complete in fact I only have a few below no 100, and Ive left it too late to complete my collection. But hello to all!

[JoeMD]

Welcome Ghosta, hope you enjoy your stay here. Never mind about your collection's size, it's reading and enjoying the stories that really counts!

[Geaghs]

In a surprise move which Joe has pressured me to do for a while, I'm back, hopefully for a while this time.

The majority of you probably know me but for those who don't, I go by Geaghs, real name is Luke Geaghan (I spend the majority of my time on Facebook, so if you want to add me there, feel free to, just mention your from the forums). I'm in my 30's, I have been collecting since I was little and now have over 1300 individual phantom issues from all over the world, plus another 600+ stickers/trading cards. My current collecting goals are to get every Frew Phantom from 700 on-wards (60 to go) and all Moonstone issues/variants (only one to go, which is hopefully on its way if I managed to buy the correct thing). Other then that I am basically after any comics/books released after I was born (1982).

That's it for now, hopefully I will manage to check out the forums more regularly but if not I will hopefully see everyone on the various other CC facebook groups.

Good to see you here, Luke. (Pressured, when? ^_-)

As I grow older and my collection grows bigger, I find the biggest problem is lack of space! Where do you keep your Phantom stuff Luke, do you have it in boxes or do you have an entire room for it like some other phans?
