Sir Falcon
Sir Falcon is an Australian comic character created by Peter Chapman for Frew Publications. The character is heavily based on the Phantom, which was also published by Frew.
Chapman who earlier had taken the responsibilities for writing and illustrating The Phantom Ranger and The Shadow, also contributed to Frew's publication of the Phantom, occasionally redrawing some of the panels, or even entire pages and producing covers.
The first issue of Sir Falcon was published in August 1954. It ran for 44 issues until August 1958. The publication was then taken over by Tricho Publications, who published a further eleven issues until May 1963.
Sir Falcon was published in Brazil, by RGE, the same company responsible for the Brazilian editions of the Phantom, under the title Águia Negra (Black Eagle).
Sir Falcon was based on a similar premise to the Phantom, with an inherited costumed identity giving rise to public belief that the character is immortal however in this case the individual is a modern-day Arthurian Knight. His civilian identity is known as Mr Knight.
