DESCRIPTION
Phantom Lady is fictional superhero, one of the first female superhero characters to debut in the 1940's Golden Age of comic books. Originally published by Quality Comics, the character was subsequently published by a series of now-defunct comic book companies, and is currently featured in some DC Comics.
As published by Fox Feature Syndicate in the late 1940s, the busty and scantily-clad Phantom Lady is a notable and controversial example of "good girl art," a style of comic art depicting voluptuous female characters in provocative situations and pin-up poses that contributed to widespread criticism of the medium's effect on children. Phantom Lady was created by the Eisner & Iger studio, one of the first to produce comics on demand for publishers.
In this issue: The Avenging Skulls; The Monster in the Pool; Clara Peete, the Beautiful Beast and other stories.
