Details have now emerged of the first two Fantomet books from Denmark. The first book has amazing art by Luca Erbetta and the second book has a cover by new comer Raúl Lara, from Spain. These books will be produced in hardcover format and will have 128 pages.
At this stage the website has no price or pre order option. The first book will be released in June 2024. The second book will be available circa October (subject to change).
