The current Phantom is getting rave reviews with a creative team that rivals the greats from the golden age of comics strips! The dailies are drawn by a former Superman artist named Paul Ryan, and the sundays are by Graham Nolan, a former Batman artist and the same guy who draws Rex Morgan (which you run). Both these artists have spectacularly realistic styles that make it hard to look at any other strips first when you open the paper. It's just rare to see that kind of dynamic art in newspaper strips, so don't blow such a great opportunity. How about an adventure strip?
