Frew 1442 - Death In Cyberspace

germ · Posted: Fri Apr 14, 2006 6:52 pm Post subject: Frew 1442 - Death In Cyberspace

Thought I will help you out mate

Featured in number 7 of 2006 in Egmont.

Story and Art by Hans Lindahl....

I enjoyed the story as it did have some nice features in it. I liked page 13 with the Phantom story but instead of the skull, he is holding the cyberspace helmet, nice touch...

Cheers, germ.

Guran had actually already created a topic on this comic, but not to worry Smile

I'm ready it now, actually. It's far fetched (how couldn't it be with 'cyberspace' in the title?) and far removed from what I really love of the Phantom (Falk from 1930s-1970s), but hey Smile

Edit: I voted average, which is apparantly what you thought of it, too Smile

He did too. opps

Just delete one of the threads...

It is different but I enjoy Hans Lindahls work, it is a nice change but lets hope we dont get too much of the cyberspace apart from the planned four parts.

In my opinion it rates only as an average story and I wouldn't like to see too many more like it but I notice at the end of the story there is a notation that indicates that this is the first of a new story arc. Sad

Yep your right mate in Jim Sheperds message he talked about three over stories coming. It should be interesting, I dont mind Hans take on the Phantom and how he likes to 'play' a bit with the Phantom world, on the cutting edge.

How do Jim know this? According to Egmont sources, it's only a two parter. Confused

I dont know how Jim knows this BUT this is what he said in his message...

Quote:

So what lies ahead? The answer is at least three more episodes which will be spread through 2006 and into next year! Hans Lindahl is working on all of them. Coming up are Lost in Cyberspace parts two and three. Part two in the series will probably not appear until September 2006 at the earliest. That will be followed by part three, which is entitled, Escape from Cyberspace and will probably be ready around February or March 2007. The fourth episode is called Return to Cyberspace which appears to be scheduled for publication in Scandinavia some time in late May or early June 2007. Sadly, unless Lindahl can complete all stories ahead of time and the Egmont publishing organisation in Scandinavia decides to rush them all into print, we will have to wait! As patiently as possible!

Hm... Very strange. "At least three more episodes" is definetely not what the list of the stories of 2006 says, but there might be more in 2007 and onwards. Question

I really enjoyed the Cyberspace story. I can't recall the last time Hans' artwork was so good, and his script seems more inspired than the average Egmont story. Lindahl really understands that the Phantom should appear mysterious and frightening to the villains, and I love the result.

On the other hand, I am slightly puzzled why the Phantom was so surprised to see a dinoasur in the cyberworld; as he already have one on the island of Eden. Wink

Perhaps Hans should find another publisher to draw for, if he find the script at Egmont to dull, that is?

Then everyone would be happy, he could continue playing with another character more suitable for his stories, and we did not have to get such "things" in our line of Phantom stories.

Just a suggestion!

You really dont like Hans work do you??

I think Hans and some of the new artists/ team has been one of the only shinning lights from Egmont lately (IMHO).

Like him or not, that is not the question here. I merely suggested a way out of a miserable situation! If hans don't like to work for Egmont, well....?

But no, his art pussles me sometimes! He also seams to have a problem with covering the Phatnom's face and that is no good!

Ummm can I ask what you mean by that??? Are you saying that Hans does not like working for Egmont or is that the impression you get?

Voted good as it was a pleasant change from the usual and also because I found it hard to put down the second time I read it.

My post is a direct reaction upon the post PA had a bit earlier in this thread! I know nothing, or have no impression!

I think PA was just talking about how Hans scripts and artwork seems more inspired than the others that feature in Egmont. I personally agree with that as I think Hans is one of the things that is keeping Egmont going.
