Ah,The Phantom

I read the comic books quite a lot when I was younger

I havent read it for years now, though.
It was,and I think still is, somewhat popular in Finland.

I think that the Billy Zane film was OK, but it suffered from bad writing.
Im not sure if this new series will be good or not. The costume does not look very good

And why set it to the present?!? They could have made a cool, swashbukcling adventure series..and maybe set each season to different era of the Phantom

But maybe I will check it out, if and when, it comes to DVD. But I doubt I feel very nostalgic about it..
