You'll see why.

Don't forget that if you've lost track of The Phantom and Alien in these confusing and silly stories I'm weaving around, you can look back though the...

PHANTOM AND ALIEN
COMIC ARCHIVE THING


The plot thickens. Like your soup.
Come back on Thursday when we shall see how Peter is getting on with taking over an empty building!
Also, anyone who is interested in helping out for The Downer's 200th edition, PM me for fun times and cool stuff. I've got most of my plans ready but am still open to suggestions.

I have been spending this whole night reading these comics! *hehe*

Question: is the guy on the home page standing next to the bus the same guy as in the blue cloak?

I think the guy on the home page is Peter Hampton, while the Phantom is Philip Hampton. (The last name is Hampton, right?)

Congratulations! Welcome to the Phantom and Alien cult! Er, I mean 'fan club'. This is the way in which we spend most of our time. Have you read volume one yet? It's my personal favourite. Well, after this one.

I've read them all (it only took two days!) but that one made me laugh! "I'm calling the police!"
