Every year since Lee Falk's death in 1999, Phantom phans from around the world and Australia gather to celebrate Falk's legacy and the Phantom. In 2026, the tradition is still going strong, with only a worldwide pandemic causing a stop in the yearly celebration that is close to 30 years in total. The event in 2026 will be held on Saturday, 20th June 2026, which will coincide with the Sydney Supanova event held over the 19-21 June weekend.
About the LFMMBEC dinner
If you would like to learn more about the past LFMBEC events, you can go to their website at www.lfmbec.org. The best way to get an invite to the event is to sign up to the email subscription list on the website.
We can announce that the guest speaker for the event is Uruguayan-born Antonio Lemos who is royalty among many phans with close to 200 Frew covers published over a 30-year career working on the character. We were lucky enough to interview Antonio Lemos in X-Band: The Phantom Podcast Episode 159, and you can watch or listen to it here.
Sydney Supanova 19-21 June 2026
At this stage, the comic-related guests for Sydney Supanova are not announced and will be likely closer to the date. We will update this article when they are announced; however, you can purchase your Supanova tickets now at their website.
2025, Frew had a booth at the convention with several new releases, including their special number 2000 issue (you can watch/listen to our review here). No official word yet has been filtered through if Frew will be having a booth. When we know more, we will let you know.
