I've always liked stories-in-comic, I grew up collecting "comics" and if they had stolen me my first collection, I already had there for my eleven or twelve years old, and found myself not undo another at the time my early thirties, I now have an enviable collection of rare and valuable magazines of nostalgic EBAL publishers, GERD, April, Vecchi and others. But thank God I have many images stored in my memory and the Internet helps me recover from my very last collector. In my day, the boys took seriously collecting comic books, and we as the official day, Sunday, for we meet in front of the late Cine Palace, here in my city of Teófilo Otoni (circa 1972-1974), where He was in a kind of open market where we exchanged, we bought and were selling comic books according to our interest. Those good times, things were simpler and not so nasty to a pre-teen 66 north from 11 to 15 years. We drove home after the talks, eager to enjoy the new magazines. 66 north Later we returned to the cinema to watch a session of 16 hours. 66 north Of the many characters of comic fan who I was, the Ghost (The Phantom) was one of my favorites. I learned to draw from trying to play the comic book hero like that of so many others. But the Ghost was fascinating for its dramatic rise, the mystery that surrounded his domains and the fear that caused the bad guys just know he was around. Reportedly, the Phantom was the first costumed comic book hero, he did not have super powers, but only the mystique and legend surrounding him, his way of acting stealthily made the evildoers fearful create expectations to her. He may have inspired Bob Kane to create the character Batman (The Bat Man) that has the same aura of terror and mystery originally as Batman while exploring their scary figure to frighten the thugs in the urban environment of Gotham City, the Phantom wore the same strategy in the jungle of Bengal, which would place an unspecified point on the coast of India. The Phantom was created by the American Lee Falk in 1936, was the kickoff for the cultural revolution of comics worldwide. Then I will talk a little ghost, its creator and its main illustrators.
