In Phantom 2040: A New Shadow Episode 19, we're at the penultimate episode for this storyline. For those who need a refresher, Carlos Oserio (the new Phantom) and his long-time mentor and family friend, Fitzroy, are on their way to Charles Tyrus' headquarters. Meanwhile, Mel, Carlos' friend, is being held hostage by Tyrus and Rebecca Madison (the leader of Maximum Inc. from the Phantom 2040 cartoon).
John Amor, who was the initial artist on this series, brings his dystopian style back to the series. The wild, eye-catching neons are back, and there are a couple of surprising panels that play with light and color in this episode that delicately balances story with action.
Tyrus, who has been donning the Anti-Phantom suit for several episodes now, grows only more monstrous under Rebecca Madison's control, which apparently includes growing an extra pair of eyes. While we still don't know much about Fitzroy, we're given some clues as to who she might be.
Question for the Phans: Do you think Fitzroy is related to The Phantom? Why or why not?
