PHANTOM AND ALIEN
COMIC ARCHIVE THING

Goodness! We're reaching the dramatic conclusion of this epic battle! Who will win out? Only the phantom knows. Because he was there. Wasn't he?

love his exspresion in the last panel!

wilwarin538 · 07-29-2010, 09:58 AM

So, that was epic.

And I'm happy to see the sofa cannon was as awesome as I expected.

Dear Ms. Emma Na Manumit,

You are creepy and I don't like your tie. All the same, put on your best news pants because it's Downer time!

Golly Gosh! Peter and Philip are still locked in battle.

What on earth will happen now? That King Bus sure gets around and looks stupid at the same time! How does Alien do it? Magic, my friends, probably magic.

Eönwë · 08-01-2010, 05:00 PM

And I always thought he had wolf hands...

Blind Guardian · 08-01-2010, 05:42 PM

Um, can you kill Phantom since this is his comic? Or will Mandos bring him back to life?

Oh, I'm sure The Phantom won't mind.

Well, he is supposed to be dead in the Barrow-Downs isn't he? As a wight?

The writer of a comic, just like a writer of a book, can kill off characters whenever he pleases. Even main characters. Besides, tp is already dead in the first two volumes. How do you think that got that way?

By the way, nice death for The Phantom, Mr. Goomba. It was a bit surprising, but so perfect!

Gah! I nearly died of fright there, what is going to happen?

A Letter To The Editor

To whom it may concern:

I must strenuously protest the lack of a new issue of your tabloid. It has been over a week now, and I find the veritable interregnum of an interruption disconcerting. It's not that I actually read your newspaper, which would be a complete and utter waste of my time; however, at issue is the need for regularity in the Downs. Imagine, if you will, a battalion of backed-up Barrow Wights bursting with bulging bowels, a confluence of constipated cadavers contcatentating in a lumbering, lengthy line in the locale of the lone loo in the empty environs of Eriador! The methane leak alone may well suffocate the entire Downs!

So, do your part to end this insufferable irregularity by publishing your platitudinous periodical, and I shall do my part and continue to ignore its existence; except, of course, in instances such as this when The Downer's absence causes obstructive enormities.

Thank you in advance for the speedy discharge of your duty,
Ms. Emma Na Manumit
Disemboguing, Thorpechestershireborroughton

Oh. I thought the cloak was empty.

like he teleported away or something.

TheGreatElvenWarrior · 08-06-2010, 09:57 AM

The more and more I look at this, the more disturbing it gets!

I didn't realise that Philip's body was still in the cloak. So Peter is handling his dead father's body...

And what part of this series told you that Peter was a nice guy?
