Claes Reimerthi (born 1955) is a prolific Swedish comics writer who has written scripts for "The Phantom" since 1984.
Biography
Reimerthi was an aspiring comics artist who submitted his own comic to Svenska Serier in the late 1970's, but was turned down by editor Ulf Granberg. A few years later, Reimerthi met Dai Darell who by then had begun writing scripts for "The Phantom". Inspired and helped by Darell, Reimerthi began a career as a scriptwriter for comics and by the end of 1984 he was a part of Team Fantomen (initially under the pseudonym Michael Tierres, an anagram of his own name).[1]
Over the years, Reimerthi has become the main writer for the Phantom stories produced for the Fantomen comic book. He has written more stories than any other Team Fantomen writer, and in later years he has been responsible for some of the most important story arcs.
As of early 2012, he has written over 200 regular stories on behalf of Team Fantomen. In addition he wrote "The Heart of Darkness", a serialized story divided into seven chapters and totally covering 50 episodes of over 350 pages in total.
After the death of Lee Falk, Reimerthi supplied scripts for the Phantom newspaper strip from 1999 to 2003, in total nine stories, two of which were remakes of earlier Team Fantomen stories.
Reimerthi is one of Sweden's most productive comic creators, and has also written scripts for the licensed versions of "Kerry Drake" and "The Gauntlet of Fate"; the comedy strips "91:an", "Lilla Fridolf" and "Sputnik"; the children's comic "Bamse" and the historical graphic novel series "Gustaf Vasa" about the Swedish king of the same name.
Reimerthi is also a comics scholar who has written several books, articles and reviews of comics and comics creators.
From 2013 to 2015, Claes Reimerthi and Hans Lindahl were the editors managing the production of new Team Fantomen stories.
