Mad Cave Studios, in partnership with King Features Syndicate, announces THE PHANTOM VS. THE SINGH BROTHERHOOD, an explosive new 40-page one-shot bringing Lee Falk’s legendary hero into direct conflict with one of the deadliest criminal forces on the planet.

Written by Ray Fawkes (Batman: Eternal, Constantine) with inks and colors by The Phantom series artist Russell Olson, and letters by Taylor Esposito, the issue features Cover A by Mark Spears (Monsters) and Cover B by Freddie Williams II and Andrew Dalhouse.

It’s all come down to this—The Phantom vs. Arif Singh and his Brotherhood! After the Brotherhood’s failed attack on Bangalla, Singh was all set to rot in prison. But concrete walls cannot stop the man who controls one of the most notorious criminal enterprises in the world. Only The Phantom can. Or this time, he might just die trying.

“In The Phantom vs. The Singh Brotherhood, we bring The Phantom and Asif Singh into the one-on-one face-off that we’ve been building to since issue 1 of the series! It’s a story we’re very proud of, one that calls back to the roots of the Phantom Legend and places him firmly in the modern day. We’re very excited to bring it to you!” —Ray Fawkes

“What excites me most about this story is the exploration of The Phantom’s aura of authority outside of his home turf. We’ve tried to showcase that he’s not a powered hero: he doesn’t gain his strength from the jungle. It’s his will, prowess, and deep sense of justice that makes him the enduring hero of these past 90 years. There’s a reason he’s beloved all over the world, and I’d like to think we’ve been tapping into this legacy and moving it forward. He’s just fantastic, and it’s been an honor to work on this book.” —Russell Olson

For nearly 90 years, The Phantom has stood as one of comics’ definitive pulp heroes. Known as “The Ghost Who Walks,” the legendary protector of Bangalla helped shape the masked vigilante archetype with generations of stories rooted in justice, myth, and a relentless war on evil.

A collectible chapter for longtime Phantom readers and fans of globe-spanning pulp adventure, The Phantom vs. The Singh Brotherhood delivers classic heroism, explosive action, and high-stakes crime fiction as the Ghost Who Walks faces one of his deadliest enemies yet.
