Plot synopsis
We open with the 9th Phantom talking with his son, sharing a story of how the boy’s father toppled the idol Zaal sending the Eastern Dark into disarray and finally putting an end to their human sacrifices. But the Eastern Dark don’t take defeat lightly and set an ambush for the Phantom who battled valiantly but was becoming overwhelmed by his injuries. Luckily his wife Vhatta was marching to meet him and she joined the fray, giving the Phantom a reprieve. But she too received critical injuries. Will these injuries finally bring the Phantom line to an end or will they help to bandage and heal a significant hole?
