  Brian Clevinger is writing a simple but fascinating story that examines corporate and political corruption, and brings with it plenty of suspense and action. It also has some really well placed funny moments, "Since when did the Phantom have two idiot sidekicks"? Which brings me to this new three-headed monster that is the Phantom, an interesting choice by Clevinger, but it works and works really well. "We are the Phantom". Read Full Review

  King: The Phantom #4 is a sturdy and accessible release that knows what it wants to be. It's a refreshing takehandled by a creative team that understands the characters they're playing with, so much so that it left me eagerly anticipating the next outing. So by all means keepthis one and buy the previous three, you won't regret it. Read Full Review

  Although King: Phantom #4 didn't resonate with me as a Phantom story, at the end of the day, Brian Clevinger and Ryan Codystill produced a good actionstory that's worth reading. Read Full Review

  My final thoughts on this book is that it's had four issues to get it's shit together and just now I'm kind of seeing some shit come together. There isn't really enough here for me to recommend this book unless you've been following along the whole time and it doesn't carry enough weight for me to recommend getting back issues to get caught up. The writing and art are serviceable, I enjoyed my time this month with The Phantom but is it enough to draw interest? I would argue that it's not, but with the end of this arc perhaps a new arc with more purpose will draw that interest. Read Full Review
