No your eyes do not deceive you - It is a shorter podcast than most. Jermayn Parker and Dan Fraser join to quickly discuss the news about Moonstone publishing new Phantom comics from the first half of 2024. You can read our initial report here.Like you, we have questions, heaps of questions. So we go over our own questions plus recap what we do know.We go over our initial responses plus why this is important news. We discuss the state of new Phantom stories release from USA since Moonstone lost the license 10 years ago and how it all coincides with the TV show in development, the new video game and how the NECA figurines was popular with high in demand sales.What we do know about the new series is: The stories will be serialised  - think the KGB Noir issues and or what Frew release. Each story will be around 50 pages (give or take) and the comics themselves will be around 50 pages (give or take).Will feature several stories including stand alone Phantom story and a cross over story with Mandrake and Lothar.Some stories will be in black and white.Released bi monthly.Mike Bullock will be the main writer.Argentinian Sergio Ibáñez will be one artist. Others to be named.First comic will be out in the first half of 2024.Majority of the stories will be about the 21st Phantom in today’s modern AfricaThe questions we would like to see answered:Will there be variant covers?Is it a continuation of the previous Moonstone continuity or a new start? ie will we see the same bad guys like Ali Gutaale, Temur Singh, Arthur Locke, Anna Bacia and Manuel Ortega?If it's a new start: Will the Moonstone stories have a consistent lineage of historical Phantom's and the Phantom bible? How they go about fitting their tales into the existing universe and/or extending on that / breaking thatWill they reprint the old stories again?Will the issues be standalone stories or part of a wider arc?What stories must I read from a decade ago to follow on from what will be told in 2024?Now as mentioned in the article, we will be having Mike Bullock and hopefully Joe Gentile as well on a future podcast so if you have your own questions we did not ask or answer, please send them to our email address chroniclechamber@gmail.com or chat with us via our social media profiles in Facebook, Twitter and or Instagram. Make sure you stay tuned with us so you do not miss out on that and do not forget to subscribe and leave a review on our podcast and or our YouTube Channel. Support the show

Jermayn Parker and Dan Fraser are joined by two guests as we look at one of the unsung heroes of Frew Publications in Peter Champan. The two guests who join us are Jeremy MachPerson and Daniel Best two budding detectives in realm of Australian comics. In this podcast you will learn all about Peter Chapman.Did you also know that he created over 400 comics and created artwork from the late 1940's all the way until  the 2000's? That is nearly 60 years of professional work behind him. No wonder many see him as the grandfather of the comics scene in Australia.In this podcast you will learn about his process of creating a comic including creating the comic (cover, script and art) inside a week. How to spot which Phantom cover he drew including the fact that he drew the first 7x Giant Size issues from the 1950's. For more information and for those who prefer to read, you may find this article written by Kevin Patrick useful (Article link) plus an article on some censoring work in a Frew comic that may be drawn by Peter Chapman.We would love your feedback and comments at either our email address chroniclechamber@gmail.com or chat with us via our social media profiles in Facebook, Twitter and or Instagram.

Jermayn Parker and Dan Fraser are joined by Kevin Patrick as they go over the 75 years of Frew. It is a fascinating chat and we guarantee that you will learn something new!Kevin Patrick is a great researcher and he has dug up a lot of information for us like stories about Ron Forsyth, Lawford Richardson, Jack Eisen and Peter Watson the original creators of Frew. We learn about one important person who to most has been forgotten about is Sylvia Eisen and we explore her importance to Frew history and the family connections between her and Yaffa Syndicate. The significance of this connection continues all through out until the 1980's including how they were key in helping the Team Fantomen stories become apart of the Frew publishing schedule.Another great story you will learn about is how Frew Publications almost lost the license in the late 1980's and how it took a last minute stand to ensure they continued the comic. Kevin also was able to dig up some sales figures for issue #1, from the 1950's, 1970's and the 2010's.We would love your own answers on these hot seat questions we asked towards the end of the podcast:Best thing Frew has ever done?What is their biggest impact / legacy?What is next for Frew?Where will Frew be in 5 years time?What do Frew need to do to continue publishing the Phantom?How do they reach the next generation of phans?You can email us your answers at chroniclechamber@gmail.com or chat with us via our social media profiles with your feedback at Facebook, Twitter and or Instagram. Coming up in a later podcast we also chat with Jeremy MacPherson and Daniel Best about Frew cover and story artist Peter Chapman.

Our special guest may be our most educated and most professional guest ever. Duncan Munro and Jermayn Parker do their best to try and contain this larger than life Phantom personality.He is a practicing clinician with over 30 years experience, combined with ongoing service through several significant Federal and State medical policy roles providing outcomes to improve the well being of Australians. Was the Chairperson for the International Health Assessment Panel under Medevac Legislation 2019 assessing claims of refugees from Manus Island and Nauru.All that is very impressive but perhaps his most important role is to be the comedy relief for the LFMBEC dinners.Along with learning all about Antonio DiDio we talk a lot about past Lee Falk Bangalla Members Explorers Club dinners and some of the guests including Jim Russell, Doc Neeson, Rod Cavalier, Kerry Chikarovski, Walter Simonson, Ian Sharpe, Greg Florimo and many more.Antonio reflects on his friendship with Richard Fry and what is next for the famous dinners. Please send us your feedback on this chat.

We are getting excited about the confirmation on the official KFS Phantom page that a new TV series is in development. Obviously with the very small notice given we don’t know much at all, but that’s not going to stop us speculating wildly!For big news like this, we’ve got Chronicle Chamber members from all over the world to share in the excitement with Mikael Lyck, Ankit Mitra and Duncan Munro joining Dan Fraser and Jermayn Parker. Given we know next to nothing (read “absolutely nothing”) about what this series is actually going to look like, we decided to make out like this podcast as a pitch meeting with KFS where each of us pitch our concept to the showrunners, hoping to get greenlit for our idea to make the series.The five elevator pitches are: A Defenders reboot, centred around a near-future Kit Walker NYPD who grows into his Phantom legacy as a team develops to battle a new-age Ming.A two-speed narrative, with a season-long Presidential coup in the 21st Phantom’s time developing alongside episode-length tales of past Phantom’s from the Chronicles.A post-apocalyptic world creates a Mad Max-style ‘jungle’, where the story of a mysterious Phantom fighting for the moral good is told almost exclusively through the eyes of others.We follow the earliest adventures.of the 21st Phantom as he develops, through to the eventual avenging of his father’s murder by Rama Singh.A “Year One” style series with a new young Phantom developing his craft, with a focus on character development and a secondary "Year One" storyline of the very first Phantom.Please note, we had some connection issues with the recording of this podcast so please bare with any glitches on the video and or audio.Some generic questions about the Phantom TV Series we discussed and would love your input as well: All but Ankit Mitra had a tv show with a 'Year One' theme. Would you like to see that or an established Phantom?Does the show need to be about the 21st Phantom?Would a Defenders of the Earth themed TV Show work with Flash, Lothar and Mandrake?Is establishing the lore important throughout the show for 'new' fans?Does Billy Zane have to be involved somehow?What is more important with your actors? Their voice, strength or their acting skills?Are we allowed to show the Phantoms eyes throughout the show?Can we have Singh as bad guys? The 1996 Phantom movie, famously changed them to Sangh.Does the Phantom need to stay in the jungle during the TV show?How can the TV Show find the balance to be removed from the 'White Saviour' problem like Tarzan and other super heroes from a bygone era?If you have any feedback on our pitches, you can email us at chroniclechamber@gmail.com or chat with us via our social media profiles with your feedback at Facebook, Twitter and or Instagram.

Did you go to Sydnova 2023? If not, we have you covered. Included in this podcast we have a recording of the Supanova Phantom panel with Alex Trpcevski, Lauren Marshall and Matt Kyme plus Alex Trpcevski's LFMBEC speech. Jermayn Parker also gives his review of the weekend as he discusses the phan catch ups, the LFMBEC dinner, the Frew booth and Supanova in general.The two recordings were recorded on a phone and in a non controlled environment, so the sound may not be the best. We did record the LFMBEC auction but because of the content, it was not included. Please note, we did get in trouble for this recording of the Supanova Phantom panel so there is a small chance that we will be requested to take it down. The Supanova panel starts at the 2 Minute 30 seconds mark and the LFMBEC dinner speech starts at the 46 Minute mark. The review of the whole weekend starts at the 54 Minute mark.If you have any feedback, you can email us at chroniclechamber@gmail.com or chat with us via our social media profiles with your feedback at Facebook, Twitter and or Instagram. Make sure you stay with us and do not forget to subscribe and leave a review on our podcast and or our YouTube Channel. Support the show
