Diamond Comics Digest was a comic book from India featuring the Phantom.

History

The series began publishing Phantom stories in 1990, after Indrajal Comics had ceased publication. Diamond Comics Digest was published by Diamond Comics and featured different comics in each issue.

Each issue was published in English, Hindi and Bengali versions. The issues were in color and in pocket book format, with 68 to 140 pages per issue. The series had an unusual double numbering. First, a sequential numbering for the entire digest series, given in roman numerals. Then, a separate sequential numbering for each comic in regular numbers. On top of that, the digest numbering was different for each language version.

All issues are dated with the copyright year 1990, which is the year that the series began and not necessarily when a specific issue was printed. Most (if not all) issues were reprinted in new editions over and over again, sometimes with new cover art. The last Phantom issue with new contents was probably published in the year 2000. New editions of some issues appeared as late as in 2010, that time the interior pages were in black/white.
