Spotting the Easter Eggs in Jungle Love


There is lots to love about Frew's 70th Anniversary Trade Paperback, released in Australia in the second half of 2018, but one thing we reckon all phans would have enjoyed is ferreting out all the Easter Eggs in the Pidde Anderson / Shane Foley story Jungle Love.

Pidde's script was a fun, light-hearted sequel to Lee Falk and Wilson McCoy's 1950 story The Movie Stars. Artist Shane Foley has clearly gone with the theme and his artwork reflects that tone as well. The creative team are both also clearly long-term phans of the Falk era!

In the video below, Jermayn highlights over 30 Easter Eggs that they planted in Jungle Love.

We have discussed the story, as well as the rest of the TPB in X-Band: The Phantom Podcast #104, which you can listen to here.

Huge thanks to Shane Foley who helped us identify some of the Easter Eggs we originally missed, and for having the insight to add them to the story in the first place.
