President Kennedy's Mission, the original comic book series currently being produced by Hermes Press, is being dramatically shortened. When Hermes introduced the new story in March 2017, it was announced as an "all-new Phantastic adventure [written by] veteran Phantom script writer Ron Goulart [together with] with artist Sean Joyce", and specifically, a "five book story arc".

A fascinating plot is promised, with Hermes spruiking a 1960's era Phantom in which Kit Walker is a wartime buddy of John F. Ke

In an article by Comic Mix they talk about the legacy of the Phantom to survive over 80 years in today’s world and correctly give the Phantom its true historical nod as the first superhero. They also talk about Hermes' up-coming new comic book series.

In the 1970’s several of Lee Falk’s Phantom stories were re-worked as short novels. Released originally by Avon Publications in the US, the series of 15 novels retold some of Falk’s most famous stories. Of the novels five were written by Falk himself with other writers filling in the other ten. Of these, Ron Goulart, using the pseudonym of Frank S. Shawn, wrote six.
