In "Little Toma," Lee Falk and Ray Moore deliver a poignant tale from 1943, where the Phantom uncovers a hidden truth about a young native boy named Toma—revealing he’s the long-lost son of a murdered English missionary and heir to the title Lord Revel. As the truth unfolds, the real Lord Revel’s conspiracy begins to unravel, forcing a moral reckoning that leaves the boy in the care of his unknowing half-sister, Enid. The story, illustrated with crisp, expressive art by Ray Moore, stands as a rare emotional depth in the early years of the series, with a cover by Ray Moore.
