The Phantom #16 (Moonstone)
By Mike Bullock, Silvestre Szilagyi, Bret Blevins
(New Story Arc) Mike Bullock takes his first journey into the jungle since taking over this title full-time. The Phantom encounters a woman who works for an animal conservation organization, a woman who has come under fire by a group of trappers who feel she's encroaching on their business. What they don't know, though, is that for the past 150 years, her family has been marked by the rarely-used Goodmark of the Phantom's left ring, the stamp that indicates they are under the protection of the Ghost Who Walks. As I've come to expect from Bullock, the book gives us a lot of strong action and stronger characterization. Angela Carlyle is a bit of a sterotype as a character -- the activist who rebels against her family -- but she works nonetheless. Silvestre Szilagyi's artwork is just great -- clean and effective. Moonstone is really treating this classic character right. Rating: 4/5 -Blake Petit
