Comics Revue is a bi-monthly magazine exclusively devoted to reprints of newspaper comics strips including the Phantom and has been published by Manuscript Press (Rick Norwood) since 1984.
Unfortunately due to health concerns with publisher Rick Norwood's health, the February 2025 issue has been delayed and has not yet been released. When we know more, we will let you know.
For those who have come in late. The first Phantom story appeared in Comics Revue #27 (May 1988).
Issue #120 includes an interview with Felmang. The popular story "Prisoners of a Painting" written by Scarlatti and drawn by Felmang was first published in a comic in issue #120. It has since been published by Frew and Fantomen. You can find out more about this story here.
Of the 350 odd magazines that have been published, nearly 50 have featured the Phantom on the cover. Felmang has drawn 6x Phantom themed covers for Comics Revue over the years and Australian Jeremy Macpherson has drawn 5x Phantom themed covers. Other artists George Perez, Enrique Romero, Tom Yeates, Jim Keefe, Wendell Cavalcanti, Reno Maniquis, Joe Staton and Guy Possiant have also drawn the Phantom (and other characters) as cover artists for the magazine.
You can follow the fortunes of the magazine at their Facebook page. If the magazine survives, if you are interested in getting your own copies, most local comic book stores can order them in.
