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
11:00 I thought the "wallpaper" looked like old school moire pattern, really liked it!
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?
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 :)
Sees Matt WITHOUT his magnificent moustache ...

Hahaha you prefer Matt with the tash? Maybe he should grow it back with the little thing under the lip as well?
