The Funnies #56

From Dell's long-running anthology comes this June 1941 installment of The Funnies, spotlighting Phantasmo, Master of the World, in a cover by E. C. Stoner that crackles with energy. A towering, bare-chested Phantasmo — his orange cape billowing against flames — looms over a young hero who is trading punches with two thugs below, one of whom has just had a gun knocked from his hand. Rounding out the package are strips featuring The Black Knight, Rex King of the Deep, Sky Ranger, John Carter, Speed Martin, and more — ten cents well spent for an action-packed anthology.
