For the first time ever, the Avon edition of The Phantom is back in
print! Hermes Press is proud to announce that they will be publishing
all fifteen pocket Avon books, starting in August 2016, and every other
month thereafter! This exciting installment, Volume 9 offers the classic
Lee Falk tale: "Killer's Town!"
Famed artist George Wilson (Dr. Solar, Magnus Robot Fighter, The
Phantom) painted the cover for Volume #9 as he did with all of the
covers used for the Avon series, and they are reproduced beautifully to
keep all of the details from the original books intact for a new
generation of Phans to enjoy!
In the far reaches of the peaceful jungle, a notorious international
criminal establishes KILLER'S TOWN, a haven for thieves and murderers
from many nations. There, with their stolen diamonds, gold, and other
precious loot, they find safe refuge from the forces of law and order
and are free to pursue their dissolute lives, protected from arrest and
punishment.
When a beautiful and innocent young girl is trapped in this evil place,
the terrorists are confronts by a mysterious and seemingly all-powerful
force represented by THE SIGN OF THE SKULL, as the Phantom,
single-handed, pits himself against the vicious world of KILLER'S
TOWN.
