It's time for a new beginning... a new focus...a new direction...and new issues more often! Welcome aboard story consultant (Iron Man writer) David Michelinie! Join us for stories torn from today's headlines of modern day Africa-told in a fashion true to the earlier/darker days of The Phantom strip! In this issue: When a UN peace-keeping mission in Northern Africa takes an explosive turn for the worse, The Phantom soon discovers that this is but the opening shot in a war to end all wars, waged by an army who lusts for their own martyrdom! And for the first time ever, the legendary Phantom artist, Sy Barry, provides a new cover for an American Phantom comic - which is also offered in a "Virgin" cover edition, limited to 200 copies worldwide!
