The Phantom Reporter

A golden-masked mystery man brought back into the spotlight by the acclaimed creative team of J. Michael Straczynski and Chris Weston, The Phantom Reporter made his mark in Marvel's The Twelve — a celebrated Modern Age series that dusted off forgotten wartime heroes for a fresh, sophisticated audience. Debuting in 2008, he shares the page with a remarkable ensemble including Master Mind Excello, The Fiery Mask, and Captain Wonder, making The Twelve feel like a lost chapter of comics history finally being told. With only a handful of catalog appearances, he's a rare find for collectors who love deep-cut characters with atmosphere and gravitas to spare.
