Yet another year with Covid-19 has left the Scandinavian Chapter without our usual sources of income. No meetings and no fairs equals zero income for us. So if you are a Phan of the Phantom and like the service we provide to you and fellow Phans, through this PhantomWiki we therefore, ask you to donate to the cost of running it. |

Behind the scenes
- The character "Farfar" is drawn to look like longtime Fantomen editor Ulf Granberg.
- In the Swedish reprint in Fantomen 5/2021, editor Mikael Sol made changes to Farfar's appearance in the artwork, and changed two background characters to look like himself and future Fantomen editor Andreas Eriksson. Sol added an eye patch to the drawings of Farfar, which matches many other drawings of Granberg in the Fantomen magazine and other comics.
