Fantomen - Den inbundna årgången (Year's issues in hardcover) series for sale on Dintidning website
Fantomen - Den inbundna årgången (Fantomen - Year's issues in hardcover) was a Swedish-created series that collected issues of Fantomen as facsimile reprints in hardcover books starting from 1950. Each book included several issues; three to five hardcover books would equal one year. The series was cancelled in 2024, with them reaching to 1973.
Thanks to those fans who have let us know that for the next few months the Dintidning website has them for sale on their website for 199 kr each. They will only be shipping to Sweden.
From 2003 to 2006, three volumes were released per year, and from 2007 four volumes were released each year. Interesingly, they were popular enough that in 2005, a second edition has been printed of some of the books, with a third from 2011 and a fourth from 2017.
What makes these different from the Frew Replica series that many phans (including those from Chronicle Chamber) have expressed distaste about is that each book also contained articles about the history of Fantomen and Swedish comic books in general from that time.
