'''''O Globo''''' is a [[The Phantom publications in Brazil|Brazil]]ian newspaper that published "[[The Phantom]]" [[Daily stories|daily strip]] between 1940 and 1995.

== History ==
''O Globo'', founded in 1925, is the major daily newspaper in Rio de Janeiro, and is part of the '''Grupo Globo''' (former '''Organizações Globo''') media conglomerate, that includes newspapers (Infoglobo), magazines ([[Editora Globo]]), tv stations (Rede Globo de Televisão), cable tv stations (Globosat), radio stations (Sistema Globo de Rádio) and a charitable foundation (Fundação Roberto Marinho). ''O Globo'' started publishing Golden Age comics with ''[[O Globo Juvenil]]'' (launched in 1937) and ''[[Gibi]]'' (1939). Two newspaper print comic book series that were published apart from the newspaper. But starting in January 22, 1940 they began publishing "[[The Phantom]]" daily strip on the newspaper in order to promote the two aforementioned comic book series. In 1952, Roberto Marinho established a publishing house named Rio Gráfica e Editora ([[RGE]]). He originally intended to name it Editora Globo but was prevented from doing so because Livraria do Globo, a company originally founded in 1883 and based in Porto Alegre, had been operating as a publisher since 1928. RGE became the magazine publishing arm of ''O Globo''. A Phantom magazine, titled ''[[Fantasma (RGE)|Fantasma Magazine]]'' was launched in 1953. In 1986, RGE acquired Editora Globo. The main reason for the acquisition was to obtain the rights to the "Globo" name. Following the acquisition, RGE officially became Editora Globo. The Phantom magazines continued being published until 1992.

In 1998, Infoglobo launched the newspaper [[Extra]], which published The Phantom daily strip between July 21, 2014, and March 13, 2015.

In January 2018, Editora Globo, Infoglobo, and Valor Econômico were merged into a single company: Editora Globo, which came to own 21 brands. Later that same year, Grupo Globo began a unification process involving TV Globo, Globosat, Globo.com, and Globoplay under the initiative called "Uma Só Globo" ("One Globo"), aiming to consolidate their previously separate operations into a single structure. The completion of the first phase of this unification was officially announced in 2021.
