    #322: Psychology of Phantom fight scenes with Julie & Alex

    Action scenes are a critical component of any Phantom story, so how does a comics creator seek authenticity, credibility, and high-level danger and originality in combat scenes and thrill sequences? The answer is to consult a stunt performer. Phantom writer Julie Ditrich and film and TV stunt performer Alex Jewson discuss how they collaborate, the psychology of fight scenes, and the dramatic and emotional effects they are seeking when choreographing action for comic book pages. The psychology of fight scenes may seem a different idea to some, but the Phantom is not like normal superheroes. He does not have superpowers; he moves differently, he behaves differently, and we spend an hour going full on nerdy about how the Phantom behaves while in a fight. This is a fascinating subject. You will enjoy this podcast. You can follow Julie Ditrich at her website. You can follow Alex Jewson at his Instagram.

    #321 - Unpacking Old Jungle Sayings

    Following on from X-Band: The Phantom Podcast Episode 307, Jermayn Parker and Matt Kyme explored the many elements that were vital to making a Phantom story something that hits the mark for phans. One of those elements was Old Jungle Sayings, in this podcast we do a deep dive into Old Jungle Sayings! According to DeepWoods.org, a story cannot be a Phantom story without these sayings appearing more than once in a while. These sayings are in many ways responsible for the mystifying aura seen in Phantom stories. We look at what are these Old Jungle Sayings and go over some of our personal favourites or sayings that stick in our memories. There is 100+ in various subtle changes to choose from! We go all nerdy and look at the origins of them in the Phantom universe, from Old Native Sayings to Old Jungle Sayings. We compare them from a cultural impact and psychological role compared to real-life proverbs and religious mantras. The comparison doesn't stop there as we compare our Phantom's Old Jungle Sayings with oral proverbs preserving legendary heroes like Maui the Maori (New Zealand) demigod, and fear-based lore enforcing social norms, which you can see in the Bedouin, Apache, and Amazonian tribes from around the world. Our final step in our nerdom travels down Old Jungle Sayings is we compare this storytelling element to comic characters like Batman, Tarzan, Judge Dredd, Conan, and the famous meme master Chuck Norris. The Phantom is the only character with all of  1) Formally repeated, structured sayings (like folklore or scripture) 2) A generational myth actively maintained by the sayings ("The Phantom never dies") and  3) A tribal culture that embraces and perpetuates the myth as truth Batman and Zorro come close in terms of urban/fear-based mythology but lack the ritualistic repetition and communal cultural buy-in. This may end up being our smartest, most in-depth, and nerdiest Phantom podcast ever! We hope you enjoy it!

    X-Band: Phantom Podcast #319 - Passing the collection mantle on!

    If you listen to this podcast, chances are you are obsessed with purple (or blue in Scandinavia, Red in South America etc) and have an unhealthy fetish on all things Phantom. This podcast is something a little different; Jermayn Parker is joined by Sean Bassett and Nick Moles as we chat about collecting.  We have interviewed and chatted with a few collectors like Pete Klaus (Episode #88), Jon Cookson (#75), Antonio DiDio (#258), Ohm Roy (#108) and Gary Horne (#64) but one thing we have not addressed much is what happens to our collections when it is time to pass the collection onto the next person? This may sound morbid, but what happens if you are not prepared & your collection is left to your loved ones to deal with? This podcast is to at least start the preparation and/or conversation so you can pass the collection onto the next generation. Some key discussion points we discuss are: The difference between an investment and a hobbyWhat items could be seen as an investmentSwedish death cleaningHow to sell your collection when that time comesWhat to do with your collection if you cannot sell itAnything else you would like to see discussed? Let us know and give us your thoughts. You can email us at chroniclechamber@gmail.com or chat with us via our social media profiles on Facebook, Twitter, and/or Instagram.

    #318 - Mad Cave Studios Phantom #1 review

    Wednesday 24 September 2025, Mad Cave Studios release their first regular feature Phantom comic on the back of their well received Defenders of the Earth comic series.  Jermayn Parker and Scott Waldyn review the comic together. We talk about the elephant in the room of the Phantom showing his eyes for us readers plus what the comic does well. At the end of the day, it is a good comic. The story is solid and has a definite modern feel to it and we hope for those Falkist phans you give it a go. We would love to hear your thoughts on the comic. We have on purpose released this episode a week after it hit the comic stores around the world. You can either email us, leave your comments at our YouTube channel, and/or leave them at our social media platforms on Facebook, Twitter, and/or Instagram.  Is Scott Waldyn right that for many readers of the comic, they wont understand the importance of the lore of not seeing the Phantom eyes? What do you think? Is it a big deal? Is the blame on King Features for allowing this? Or is it on Tony DePaul who started this trend with his Daily story "Phantoms End"? Did you like the dual character perspective in the comic? Did you like the love and relationship shown between the Bandar and the Phantom? Did you like the art style? Does the Phantom not having stripped undies bother you? Anything else you would like to see discussed? Let us know and give us your thoughts. You can email us at chroniclechamber@gmail.com or chat with us via our social media profiles on Facebook, Twitter, and/or Instagram.
