Fantomen - Den vandrande vålnaden #3/1996
In "Oxgudens mysterium," a deadly plague strikes the jungle, sending Diana to Bengali with a UN medical team—her letters to Fantomen lost in transit, leaving him unaware of her true location. As the local medicine men fear their authority is fading, the Wambesi healer manipulates Diana into committing a sacred offense against the ox god Moogoo, demanding the white doctors be tested with burning iron. With the help of Wambesi’s prince, Fantomen steps in to challenge the corrupt tradition, turning the tide of belief and breaking the medicine men’s hold. Written by Lee Falk and illustrated by Sy Barry, with a cover by Sy Barry, this 1996 issue delivers a gripping tale of cultural clash and justice in the heart of the jungle.

Pesten bryter ut i djungeln och Diana följer med FN:s läkarteam till Bengali för att hjälpa till. Hennes brev till Fantomen kommer dock på villovägar och han vet inte att hon arbetar i Wambesi-byn, under medicinmannens illvilliga blickar. Djungelns medicinmän ser sina positioner hotade av de vita läkarna. Wambesis medicinman lurar Diana att begå helgerån mot oxguden Moogoo och kräver att de vita ska prövas med glödgade järn. Fantomen ingriper och tillsammans med Wambesis prins byter han medicinmannens makt. Ryktet sprider sig genom djungeln och medicinmännens makt bryts.
