He was kind of a vertigo-style horror-themed hero but not part of the vertigo line, firmly grounded in the DC mainstream. Flashbacks describe him teaming up with Dr. Fate and the golden age GL. I rather liked the mini; it had kind of a Clive Barker feel. I thought it was cool than Johns revived him. <br /><br />Rob, will you be covering PS's cameos in the Byrne/Claremont X-Men run? Or maybe it was just the one time.RCnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2672912018624878918.post-47002332934329169022009-06-02T08:34:47.448-04:002009-06-02T08:34:47.448-04:00...sometimes its not easy, having a blog about The...<I>...sometimes its not easy, having a blog about The Phantom Stranger.

I thought it was a Johns creation but someone told me there was a mini that was his first apperance. Just what I hear through the old E-grapevine.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11436072451281843290noreply@blogger.com
