Comments: Thanks to Dansen T.Stahl who provided the following information, gleaned from an old fan magazine "Rocket Blast Comi-Collector".

"Costume: Jodhapur pants. Tall leather boots. Pistol holster on belt. Domino mask. Headband, tied around head with ends trailing down to waist. No shirt. "Claw slash" tattoo on chest. Char Chapman, known as "the Phantom of the East", appeared in his own title. His costume consisted of green goggles, head band, boots and belt, brown jodphers. On the cover, he had a red shirt, in his stories, he was bare chested and had a tattoo {three-clawed}. His artist was Kev Haracre and his alter ego was famed hunter-guide of the same name. Action took place in the jungles. There were two stories in issue #19 from which these panels were taken. He apparently had no super powers and relied on superior strength and agility." The original contributors to the magazine with this information were John Ryan and Howard P. Siegel
