The Brazilian Biography of Lee Falk Book Review
Announced in early 2024, the book “Lee Falk - The Comic’s Legend” (Lee Falk - A Lenda dos Quadrinhos) is already one of the most talked-about Brazilian publications of the year.
Gonçalo Junior, the author, is a journalist and writer who is highly respected by Brazilian readers, having written several works on the history of comics in Brazil, as well as biographies of important comics personalities, singers and other names of cultural relevance.
According to Gonçalo, Lee Falk is one of the most important names in comics worldwide, however there has been limited works that tell his life story. In fact, he found mentions of a single work about Falk, but it was completely out of print.
Through research in archives, Gonçalo found interesting information that allowed him to trace Falk’s trajectory; in addition to this information, he also found three major interviews given by Falk, and thus it was possible to reconstruct his story with data perhaps never before gathered in a single place.
Over the course of 320 richly illustrated pages, we learn about Falk's formative years, how he was hired by King Features Syndicate, his relationship with theater, his marriages, and his way of working on the Mandrake and Phantom comics. We also discover Falk's role in the fight for civil rights for black people in the United States, at a time when racism was almost seen as natural, and his work as a spy during World War II!
Gonçalo builds his biographical narrative as a storyteller worthy of Old Man Mozz, presenting us with a man with dreams, passions, and, of course, his contradictions. We see, for example, how Falk was passionate about magicians, a great influence on the creation of Mandrake, and about the world of theater, something present in the dramatic way in which the Phantom often acts.
It is a truly impressive book, for which I am happy to have collaborated as a reviewer, and I hope that readers from other countries besides my own will have the opportunity to read this wonderful work. Would you like to see it published into English for the wider phantom audience to enjoy it? How about a campaign for a publisher to publish it in English?

Great review! I made my own: ua-cam.com/video/jRhleVELgTU/v-deo.htmlsi=Ni8fm8C8mJpQrBAP
You enjoyed the read? How has the comic and story been received in Brazil?
@@Chroniclechamber , yes, I really enjoyed! Few peoples in Brazil read it until now.
Masks of the phantom at 1:49:52
It would be cool seeing kit/Heloise as mr walker, drinking milk, roughing up roughnecks, embracing phantom lore and phantom sense of humour. And reading from the chronicles about their dads adventures
Thanks for your comment and stopping by. A great idea, it could Maybe in the Empty Throne saga which features them as the Phantoms with their dad missing.
🎉🎉🎉
Have you read the comic yet?
Thnx for the Great new video. Can you please provide info regarding original DOTE tv series and old comics from which u have used the footages and images in the video.
Glad you enjoyed the video. What information are you after regarding the TV show and the original comic series?
@@Chroniclechamber any or all the info, specially how to get them today. A detailed video can be made on this, right? Would be an interesting one.
Thanks for your comment. You can watch the whole tv series on UA-cam via the Comics Kingdom channel ua-cam.com/play/PLgkKj2n1LjA-lPLkDT8SxsiWo7wCOFFPy.html&si=MMOpbeRBa1HzgUgm Regarding the Comics, Mad Cave Studios has also just released a collected trade paperback collection which is currently on sale via your local comic shop, their website, online retailers etc. our review of the TPB will be on our UA-cam channel soon.
not a fan malaka calls the phantom in costume kit in the back of the cab
Yes great point. She definitely knows the Phantom and Kit Walker are the same person.
starting to think tony is trying for the sunday record again.
Hahaha. Jokes aside, what do you think of the Sunday story?
wonder if the college kid will make a cameo as this story is in his area and be a good long term link to the daily stories
One of my favorite superheroes “The Ghost who Walks" on video game. It would better if the gameplay mod like Arkham games.❤
Looks gorgeous! I hope a Defenders of the Earth game occurs one day
Who knows. Without any insider information I think if this sells well and makes Art of Play and King Features money, they will likely look at it.
Apropos of nothing...thanks for putting these podcasts out so regularly, fellas. Am enjoying this'un with pasta and a good red :-)
Our pleasure! Thanks for your comments
Doesnt look as good as phantom 2040 snes
Really???? The graphics look heaps better in this newer video game
@@Chroniclechamber I mean doesn't look as fun
Fair enough. We think you will enjoy it if you give it a chance. Hope you do and it proves you wrong :D
@@Chroniclechamber well I will play it, I probably will enjoy it
Look forward to you letting us know your thoughts on the game after you’ve played it :)
Hmm, looks interesting. I only know the 2040 version of the Phantom. Which was pretty good. And a very nostalgic cartoon. I'll see if I like this game.
Very under rated tv show and game! Here is some behind the scenes of the video game which you may find interesting www.chroniclechamber.com/post/2020/02/14/behind-the-scenes-of-the-phantom-2040-video-game-2-of-2
Can't beat Phantom 2040 on the SEGA Mega Drive tho!

@@Chroniclechamber Very cool thanks
Next..the shadow & dick tracy
We would love to see a Defenders of the Earth game featuring Flash Gordon, Mandrake and d Lothar as well as the Phantom
Couple of slick looking blokes! Shout out to craig for being a fellow launcestion. Looking forward to the phantom game!
Thank you for your comment. How good do they look with that shirt? Nick Moles from a recent podcast introducing the dinner is also from Tasmania.
Love the podcast, keep up the good work! Just wanted to point out that the 27th Phantom also has a horse named Hero; he's in episode 4 (A House Divided) of Defenders of the Earth. This does seem odd, but the writers of the cartoon probably weren't too worried about Phantom history.
Good point about a horse named Hero did feature in that one episode. Seems an outliner. Maybe it will be explained in the comic book, this is only four pages
"At the mercy of Ming the Merciless? Do you know how ridiculous that sounds?" At least it's a little self-aware, I am a little wary of Phantom's weapons changing, as well as his gun holsters missing, but will be picking this series up regardless; Not many current options for Phantom in the U.S.
Thank you for your comment :) Do you think Jermayn (one of the voices on the video) is onto something that it may be due to the worlds technology going missing?
@@Chroniclechamber I don't know how that would affect the existence of 1911 pistols; I don't mean that rhetorically, I just literally don't know, but even in the cartoon the Phantom was pretty different from what he is in the comic strip.
Guess time will tell if it’s explained in the comic book series or not. From memory the Dynamite Entertainment series, technology was crippled by Ming.
Heck yes! I wonder if we'll get a 2040 skin.
Not a bad idea!!!
🎉🎉🎉
Have you seen the second trailer for the video game we’ve also posted?
Great review on Mozart Couto's take on The Phantom Childhood. Just a small note: that story was adapted in 2001 by Franco de Rosa, and drawn by Mozart Couto about the same time. They were looking for King's approval and Frew finally got it to have it published!! Hope fans enjoy it and sparks some other publisher interested on his artwork!
Thank you for that information. We did not know that. We would love to learn more about that so we can write an article about it. If you can help us with that, please email us at chroniclechamber@gmail.com
As a filipino reading this as a kid every sunday seeing this gets me hyped
Glad your hyped!! Keep an eye out on our UA-cam channel for more information, videos and Podcasts for the game.
Filipino card haha
@thecat2098 We actually wrote about the Filipino Tek Cards here www.chroniclechamber.com/post/2020/03/30/philippines-phantom-tek-cards
Is there no official youtube channel for the company or this game? Finding this trailer on here (in better than 360p) was way more annoying than it should have been. Thanks for hosting it.
thephantomgame.com
www.youtube.com/@ArtOfPlayGames
@@ThePokerfella Thats the stuff. I knew they must have had a youtube trailer somewhere. I kept only finding one from a channel called "the phantom" but that upload has its quality capped at 360p, so no way it was the official one.
Ja!! Jag vill!!
Less than 6 months away to buy! What console do you have?
@@Chroniclechamber NIntendo
Will we get this on Nintendo switch
Yes.
Console???
Console???
It's on which console???
It will be on the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, Steam and possibly Xbox. We would recommend listening or watching the podcast chat we have with the creator of the game www.chroniclechamber.com/post/x-band-phantom-podcast-241-introducing-ash-nicholls-and-art-of-play
This looks so cool 😱😱😱
We agree. Ensure you keep an eye on our UA-cam channel as we will be interviewing the creators again soon.
unlockable Billy Zane costume ?
Unsure if that’s an option at the moment but it’s a great idea. We do know there will be an option where you can change the colour from purple to blue.
very nice for upload.
Thanks for visiting.
Great guest. As a fellow Serbian, I can confirm that the Phantom, Mandrake and Flash Gordon are among the most beloved comic book characters for us, since 1930's 'till today. Cheers!
Thank you for your comment! Jermayn has a few of the ex-Yugoslavian comics as well. Great comics. Do you still read the comics?
Thank you! Greetings to a fellow Serbian! 🙂
@@Chroniclechamber As a professional artist with a fairly big collection of comics, I'm practicaly obligated to read 'em. ;) Also, my fellow artist from Serbia, Bane Kerac (maybe you know him as H.M.Baker when he drew Ghost for Dark Horse), a few years ago worked on a Phantom story for the Scandinavians, so you will probably come across some Phantom art from around here soon. We had many editions with the Phantom, it's not easy to collect 'em all, but for the most part it's not expensive. And yes, he was mostly painted red. ;) If you need more informations on King Features in Serbia feel free to ask. Cheers and keep up the good work!
We are aware of Bane Kerac, we even interviewed him which can be read here: www.chroniclechamber.com/post/2019/09/04/introducing-bane-kerac-serbian-artist
@@Chroniclechamber Great interview, Bane was a great influence on us younger artists, Cat Claw was the first Marvel/DC style superhero comic done right in Yugoslavia, but he also changed the whole approach to storytelling in our comics with his pages in Kobra, specifically in Hell's Angel episode.
Start date: August 28th, 1944 End date: March 24th, 1945 printing mistake
Uncle Walker! Good spot, in the issue it has August 28, 1945 as the start date instead of 1944. Btw love the name and look forward to more of your comments.
very nice for upload.
Please tell me where to find those Phantom's Rings !!!! I badly want them!! Thanks :D
Thanks for your comment. Unfortunately they are not available anymore to buy from a shop. Will have to buy from the secondary market.
16:40 ish, Better homes and gardens, throw rugs... the 400 year old bachelor pad!😂😂😂 Classic!
Thanks for your comment. Ensure you stay on the platform as there will be a few other announcements to watch and keep on top off before the game is released.
@@Chroniclechamber for sure - enjoying and appreciating your content 🙏🏼 as well as being super hyped for the game!🎮
Looks epic! 90s nostalgia for me 🔥
Absolute beautiful art 👍🏻
We agree. The artists involved have done a great job. Be great to see them sell out and at the very least to encourage the artists with the work they have freely done.
I like The Phantom Thank you from The Awesome song.
The Phantom needs a change of scenery. To remind you here, the world has changed over the decades. He needs adventure out to different parts of the world, battling evil scientists with enhanced intelligence, upper-class villains with enhanced conditions, villains trained in various fighting techniques, building armor vehicles, and powerful weapons, and evil wizards/witches performing dark arts to manipulate and more!
Hello Darren. An interesting subject and you have raised this on other videos on our UA-cam channel. Just remember that while some of the Phantom villains compared to the Marvel and DC universe are not as exciting but the Phantom is not in the superhuman universe. He is based in a universe as real as what we live in - when was the last time you saw a meta human? About fighting against villains with enhanced natural abilities like martial arts, military skills, powerful weapons etc I would suggest stories featuring bad guys like Lubanga, General Bababu, Manuel Ortega, The Nomad and The Python. At stages they all wreck havoc on the Phantom and in some stages even defeated him in various fights. We also have a cool podcast chat about villains which you can watch / listen here: www.chroniclechamber.com/post/x-band-the-phantom-podcast-172-our-top-10-phantom-villains
1:27:38 that's AI though, see the six fingers lol
Yes! Great eyes. There was a great discussion on our social media about these covers from several cover artists in Glenn Lumsden and Ankit Mitra. We would suggest digging out the conversation.
Must admit, it appealed to my sense of mischief to tease the groaner of the year 7/year 8 cliche on January 15, 2024 the first day of "The Chain." On the 16th, of course, Wrack & Ruin remains real, as it must. I don't want to say much about what "The Chain" means (what its recurring images mean) but when the story ends it should be apparent how "The Chain" puts the Wrack & Ruin material into a context we haven't seen before. Which is not to say Wrack & Ruin is going anywhere; it isn't. It's baked into the universe now. But there are still things to discover about it. The Phantom's about to make one of those discoveries. When you see what's on his mind in the closing week, you might be even more surprised by what doesn't even enter his thinking.
You read it here first pholks! A new tease for us to keep an eye out on at the end of next week. Also thank you for confirming that the chain dream sequence will make more sense at the end of this current part / story. I know the boys where concerned they must have missed something. Thank you Tony for your comments. Also thank you for listening to our podcast and the ramblings of some phans. Any replies to ruining some childhood memories of Dan and Jermayn?
@@Chroniclechamber Readers are free to think what they like, of course, but it's okay with me if some have been properly disillusioned about the 1953 tale that never happened. To be freed of one's illusions and suddenly see things as they are, this is a good thing. 🙂 About the story seeming like one story morphing into another, some of that is inherent in the nature of a narrative that takes place in 24 hours. Not that this is exactly Mrs. Dalloway or Ulysses, you understand, but a day in the life of the Phantom is bound to start here and go there. He doesn't know where it's going. But he'll know it when he gets there.
I would like to see the Phantom fight upper-class villains with superhuman powers! enhanced conditions; superhuman strength, intelligence, speed and agility, enhanced combat fighting like martial arts, military skills, and warfare, using powerful weapons, and more!

that 'speckling' effect is exactly what is required : memories of the past comics which were speckled and a certain dimness of memories. my opinion only of course
Glad you enjoyed the effect and thank you for your comments :)
11:00 I thought the "wallpaper" looked like old school moire pattern, really liked it!
Lamento "amigo" mas....EU SOU O FANTASMA,, O ESPÍRITO QUE A N D A..ok
Once again chaps, another great discussion! Really enjoyed the insights into Matt's creative decisions for "Enter the Phantom". I Just love his almost child like passion and enthusiasm for the character, and this can be felt in his stories. I will now start demanding that monthly series from Frew! I have seen some creators on youtube post directors commentary videos of their work. This podcast reminded me of those videos. You may have already done something similar, but a directors commentary type podcast of some of the Aussie creators and their stories would be interesting. One story I had in mind was Shane Foley's "Bad Blood in Bangalla" which apparently has a lot of references to earlier Phantom stories.
Interesting idea! Would love to look into this idea more, do you have an example we can look at?
Hi @@Chroniclechamber ua-cam.com/video/joUZgObXmU0/v-deo.html this is the link for a directors commentary by Daniel Warren Johnson who is the artist and writer on the current Transformers comic. I thought something like this would be interesting in a discussion format.
Thank you for sending us that link. We will look into it. Always appreciate feedback and suggestions :D
Regarding the limitations King put on stories: In my 'The Golden Queen', my proposal had a careless line (on my part) that implied the Phantom was the King of the jungle and it was severely rejected. That was despite my having in the next panel or so a line where the Phantom asks jungle folk if they mind him becoming involved in their problem. Another thing King will not accept is any killing animals. One question you haven't addressed here (and which Matt didn't answer me either :-) was why change 'Sunda' Trough to 'Sundra'? Is it because 'Sunda Trough' is a real place?
Thank you Shane for that insight with your recent experience with KFS. Will have to ask Matt about the Sunda and Sundra. Interesting point, did anyone else pick it up?
Sees Matt WITHOUT his magnificent moustache ... *Unsubscribes
Hahaha you prefer Matt with the tash? Maybe he should grow it back with the little thing under the lip as well?
