Click hear for my review.
As a story it was ok but as a development of the Temple of the Gods Saga I did not think much of it as it did not really tell us or explain anything more than what we already know from the first couple of parts. Just seems like Egmont trying to flesh it out as much as possible (like the Phoenix saga).
A side note which I was really interested about what the use of the zip tone. It makes the artwork look good in B&W. _________________ Germ

In the interests of full disclosure, Hans LIndahl wrote the plot for this story (and the next two tales in the Chamber of the Gods series), while I wrote the scripts.

Yet again yoou are wrong!
First publsihed in Fantomet Nr. 24/2006 and even before that in Finland!
If you want to go on using the swedish publishing date I suggest you shange it to "first publishing in Sweden in Nr. 25/2006"!!
Anyway, I am glad to see that we got our own stories published here first for a change.

Take your objection up with Brian (deep woods) because that is from his listing. _________________ 'It's the End of the World as we know it and I feel fine' |

You wrote it and it is then your responsibillity to get it right. If you don't want to take that, just "quote" Brian and everything is fiene.
But as you now know it should not be a problem in the futrue I guess!!??

I rather liked the story, it showcased one of the cooler of the historical Phantoms, had great art ( even the colours were decent for a change! Can't be compared to Tom Smith's awesome work on the cover tho. Why doesn't Egmont hire him full-time for some colouring-work?) and a tale of the Phantom travelling trough the world.
I think the only thing that didn't quite jime with me was when Wulf became more wolf-like by moonlight.. why would that happen?? And why was he ussually more man-like than the other genetically engineered beings from the Temple that we've seen??
Other than that, it wasn't bad at all. _________________ The Phantom makes a confusing gesture! |

I thought it was fairly good.
I personally like stories that go back in Phantom history.
My only wish would be that all parts were in consecutive issues. _________________ The ghost who extends Ki can never die

It felt like another story that was simply produced to stretch a saga without being necessary. The story probably could have stood by itself as a single issue story with a little bit of tweaking. I can't give this any better than average.

I think it was based on the idea that he was a werewolf. _________________ 'It's the End of the World as we know it and I feel fine' |

Hi
| Trimmer wrote: | That is from the Egmont listing - Why don't you take a look at the Frew listing?  |
Why be that stubborn? Why not do it right??
What if someone told you that Frew's first publishing was in an USA publication?? First published in Frew USA # 15 - 75!!
I think you would say, there is no such thing as a Frew publishing US!! Well there is no such thing as Scandinavia # 24-2006!!
I hope you will at least try to do your best in the future, and not only copy someone else and call it OK!!
