The missing week on the "Still Lovely, Still Deadly" Mandrake story from the Frew 2026 Annual (issue #2014)

The Frew annual for 2026 is now out in shops throughout Australia, which features several crossover stories featuring the Phantom and Mandrake the Magician, both created by Lee Falk. One of the stories, "Still Lovely, Still Deadly" created by Fred Fredericks has a week missing on how it was originally created in the Frew annual.

Attached is the final week of the story, which includes another cameo of the Phantom. No official word on why this week was missed. It could be a simple mistake, or it could be due to a space restraint. It is a pity, as the last week wraps up the story with two potential sequel stories with a new relative to battle with Mandrake and Lothar teaming up with the Phantom to fight those drug runners. Perhaps the funniest aspect of this story was Lothar getting a ticket for breaking the law, which was also missed in the comic book publication.
