In "The Adventures of the Girl Phantom," The Phantom recounts a forgotten chapter from his family's legacy: when his twin sister Julie stepped into his mantle during his illness, secretly safeguarding the jungle's peace. Though her identity as the Phantom was eventually exposed by villains, Julie outwitted them in the Deep Woods, reclaiming stolen treasure and surviving a deadly waterfall—though her brother never learned the truth. Written by Dick Wood and illustrated by Bill Lignante, with lettering by Ben Oda, this 1967 adventure features cover art by Bill Lignante, all in a 12-cent comic that captures a rare, daring chapter in the Phantom’s lineage.
