This Turkish consortium curated by Muk Aks displays the nostalgic art of Space Knight Rom again the link
above:
Originally “Rom” was a toy co-created by Scott Dankman, Richard C. Levy, and Bryan L. McCoy.
To promote the toy, the creators of licensed the character to Marvel comics, who created the
series Rom: Spaceknight. Meanwhile in present day,the licenced characters and name belong to
Hasbro, mostofthe background and developtmed of the character belongs to Marvel Comics.
Rom the first to volunteer
The peaceful planet known as Galador was threatened by a fleet of ships manned by shapechanging aliens known as Dire Wraiths. Galador’s ruler, the Prime Director, calls for volunteers
to be transformed into cyborg warriors called ‘ Spaceknights’. Afterwords, they can defend the
planet from the invaders.
The volunteers were promised that their “humanity” (the body parts that would be removed to
accommodate the bionic armor) would be preserved and restored to them after the threat was
over. Rom, a poet on his home planet, was the first to volunteer, and was transformed into a
large, silver humanoid that at first glance appeared to be totally robotic. Rom was also given
Galador’s most powerful weapon – the Neutralizer – which on one setting could banish the
Wraiths into the Limbo dimension (a pocket universe) forever.
The people of Galador were inspired by his example, and a total of 1,000 Galadorians
volunteered and were transformed into Spaceknights, each with his or her own unique armor,
powers suited to the individual who wielded them. The Spaceknights were victorious in
stopping the Wraith invasion, but Rom decided to follow the remnants of the fleet back to their
home planet –(the Wraithworld ) which orbited a black sun. The un-prepared Wraiths panicked,
and after a futile counter-attack abandoned the planet and scattered throughout space.
Rom now felt responsible for spreading the creatures’ evil across the universe, and swore he
would not reclaim his humanity until all Dire Wraiths had been banished to Limbo. His fellow
1,000 Spaceknights, including comrades Starshine I and Terminator, swore the same oath and
left Galador .

Mayor Story Arcs:
Earthfall
Arrival planet Earth
200 years later Rom arrived on Earth falling like a shooting star to the ground . Landing near the
town of Clairton, in West Virginia, Rom encountered a young woman named Brandy Clark. After
seeing Rom battle with the Wraiths, Brandy comes to understand his mission and helps to hide
Rom from prying eyes.
This becomes necessary once Rom uses the Neutralizer in public, as witnesses only see a “killer
robot, like something from the old movies of the 1950’s” disintegrating innocents – they do not
realize that Rom is in fact banishing Wraiths who are hiding in human form. In time Brandy’s
boyfriend, Steve Jackson, also accepts and helps Rom in his mission, although when Brandy
began to fall in love with the noble Rom her relationship with Steve was horribly strained.
Fight Against the Wraith
During his time on Earth, Rom fights and banishes thousands of Wraiths. Meeting many heroes
and making many allies such as the XMen, Luke Cage who at the time possessed the powers of
the Hulk along his journey. Rom’s war against the Wraiths takes a turn for the worse – a new
form of Wraith appeared on Earth, and appeared to be far deadlier and sinister than the first
variety.
It is later revealed that these are female Wraiths, who rely on sorcery and magic, as opposed to
the much weaker males who placed their faith in science and technology. Unlike the males, the
female Wraiths chose not to attack in secretly and openly attacked Clairton while Rom is away,
killing everyone (including Steve Jackson and superhero Torpedo) with exception of Brandy
Clark. Furthermore, they also make the strategic mistake of openly attacking S.H.I.E.L.D.
headquarters, the HellCarieer, which removes all doubts of the Earth authorities of the
existence and threat of the Dire Wraiths.
Rom, however, manages to destroy them and banish their planet with the aid of his superpowered allies which included Forge, Rick Jones, Brandy Clark, Cindy Adams and members of
the U.S. military.
Endgame
Final conflict
Rom leaves Earth soon after the battle and returns to Galador. Unknown to Rom, however,
Brandy had accidentally met the entity called the Beyonder, and asked him to transport her to
Galador. The Beyonder complied and Brandy found herself on Galador, now occupied by a new
group of Spaceknights that had been created in the absence of the originals .
The new Spaceknights had been corrupted by their power, and feeling superior to normal
Galadorians, massacred the entire race. In an act of sheer spite the new Spaceknights also
destroyed the frozen humanities of the original Spaceknights. Rom arrived too late and could
only save Brandy. Enraged, Rom summoned the original Spaceknights and together they
destroyed the rogue Spaceknights.
Rom then made a surprising discovery, his original humanity persisted within the entombed
body of Terminator. After reclaiming it, Rom became human again and finally admitted his love
for Brandy. The two chose to remain on Galador to re-populate his native world, while the other
Spaceknights, their humanity now destroyed, set out to explore the universe and help defend
other planets
During the years Rom battled the the increasingly desperate threat of the Dire Wraiths, the
monsters created new foes for Rom, such as the magically created Devil Dogs, robotic Watchwraiths and false Spaceknight Firefall- a fusion of human and Spaceknight. Two of Rom’s
greatest foes are the aptly named Hybrid(hideous result of a combination between Wraith and
human)

The Turkish Consortium dives into the Phantom very Popular in South America and Europe:
The Artwork History is impeccable: link to the Facebook group above:
The Phantom is an American adventure comic strip, first published by Lee Falk in February

1936. The main character, the Phantom, is a fictional costumed crime-fighter who operates
      from the fictional African country of Bangalla. The character has been adapted for
      television, film and video games.
      The series began with a daily newspaper strip on February 17, 1936, followed by a color Sunday
      strip on May 28, 1939; both are still running as of 2020. In 1966, King Features stated that The
      Phantom was being published in 583 newspapers worldwide.[1] At its peak, the strip was read by
      over 100 million people daily.[2][3]
      Falk worked on The Phantom until his death in 1999; since his death, the comic strip has been
      written by Tony DePaul. Since 2016, it has been drawn by Mike Manley (Monday–Saturday) and,
      since 2017, Jeff Weigel (Sunday).[4][5] Previous artists on the newspaper strip include Ray
      Moore, Wilson McCoy, Bill Lignante, Sy Barry, George Olesen, Keith Williams, Fred
      Fredericks, Graham Nolan, Eduardo Barreto, Paul Ryan, and Terry Beatty. In the strip, the
      Phantom was 21st in a line of crime-fighters which began in 1536, when the father of British
      sailor Christopher Walker was killed during a pirate attack. Swearing an oath on the skull of his
      father’s murderer to fight evil, Christopher began a legacy of the Phantom which would pass
      from father to son. Nicknames for the Phantom include “The Ghost Who Walks”, “Guardian of
      the Eastern Dark” and “The Man Who Cannot Die”.[6]
      Unlike many other superheroes, the Phantom has no superpowers; he totally relies on his
      strength, intelligence and the myth of his immortality to take action against the forces of evil.
      The 21st Phantom is married to Diana Palmer; they met while he studied in the United States
      and they have two children, Kit and Heloise. He has a trained wolf named Devil and a horse
      named Hero, and like the 20 previous Phantoms he lives in the ancient Skull Cave.
      The Phantom was the first fictional hero to wear the skintight costume which has become a
      hallmark of comic-book superheroes, and was the first shown in a mask with no
      visible pupils (another superhero standard).[6][7] Comics historian Peter Coogan has described
      the Phantom as a “transitional” figure, since the Phantom has some of the characteristics
      of pulp magazine heroes such as The Shadow and the Spider and earlier jungle heroes such
      as Tarzan, as well as anticipating the features of comic book heroes such as Superman, Batman,
      and Captain America.

Zagor was created in 1961 by writer Sergio Bonelli, the son of Gian Luigi Bonelli, author of
western character Tex Willer, and artist Gallieno Ferri, who has been working at Zagor’s stories
for more than fifty years.
Since its creation Zagor has been one of most popular Italian comics, alongside characters such
Tex Willer, Dylan Dog, Diabolik and Lupo Alberto. Zagor comics are a unique mixture of
classical western genre and other topics like pure adventure, fantasy, historical, and since he has
fought against vampires and aliens, even horror and science fiction.
His full battle name is Za-Gor Te-Nay, pretended to mean, in some fictional native American
language “The spirit with the hatchet”. Zagor embraces a philosophy of neutrality among races,
but, since his mission is to protect the weakest people against injustice, he often takes the side of
the Indians against the oppression of the white Americans.
He lives in a wooden hut built in a swamp, in the middle of the fictional Darkwood Forest,
located across the boundaries of three American states of the Midwest: Pennsylvania, West
Virginia and Ohio. His stories are set in the first half of the nineteenth century, when the
American frontier began to move toward west.
O R IG I N
Patrick Wilding was born in Eastern United States in the early nineteenth century. Young Pat
grew happy and thoughtless in a house on the bank of the Clear Water River, together with his
beloved parents, Mike and Betty. His father, Mike Wilding, was a former Official of the US
Army who, after having distinguished in many battles, had left the violence of the military
campaigns to live in harmony with both Indians and whites, in a log cabin in the heart of the
Forest of Darkwood.
The dream of happiness of young Pat was shattered in a quiet summer day, when Mike,
breathless, barricaded himself in the house just before an unexplained attack by a tribe of
Abenaki natives, led by a renegade whose name was branded in the heart of the child: Salomon
Kinsky.
Young Pat burying his parents and swearing revenge
The Abenaki laid siege to the cabin and in spite of the fury and the courage with which the
child’s parents were fighting, their fate was already sealed. With heart full of hope little Pat was
entrusted to the waters of the river, and the faces of his parents furrowed with grief and
illuminated by the glow of burning logs were the last indelible image of them for the boy.
Patrick Wilding was picked up freezing and stunned by the man who would have been his guide
and master of his life, Nathaniel Fitzgeraldson. Some time later, He and Pat returned to the hut,
where they found the mangled remains of Mike and Betty.
Under the watchful eye of the concerned man, the young orphan buried his parents, and, his heart

Media

Flash Gordon featured the eponymous athletic hero Flash, his girlfriend Dale, the mysterious Dr. Zarkov and their adventures on the exotic planet Mongo ruled by the evil Emperor Ming. Moore’s sharp, exciting writing combined with Raymond’s lush, detailed illustrations would launch the strip to the heights of popularity, quickly outpacing their well-established rivals.

Raymond worked on Flash Gordon for the next 10 years. Over that time his technique and composition evolved. The panels grew larger, and while that meant there were fewer panels per strip, the larger area allowed Raymond to create more detailed and dynamic scenes. Raymond also began to forgo the use of word balloons, instead presenting dialog and narrative as text at the bottom of the panel.

Alfredo Castelli is one of the most important Italian comics authors. Born in Milan on 26 June 1947, he entered the world of comics, which he followed with passion from a very young age, in 1965: he made his debut on “Kolosso” and created Skeletrino, protagonist of grotesque stories, which he wrote and drew in the appendix to ” Diabolik”, one of the best-selling comics in Italy in those years. In 1966, not yet twenty years old, he founded “Comics Club 104”, a self-produced fanzine, the first experiment of its kind in Italy

https://www.facebook.com/groups/dylandogturkiye‘

Dylan Dog is an Italian horror comics series created
by Tiziano Sclavi and published by Sergio Bonelli
Editore since 1986.
The series features the eponymous character, a paranormal investigator who takes on cases
involving supernatural elements such as ghosts, demons, vampires, undeads, werewolves and
other creatures, but also horrifying sociopathic criminals and serial killers. It defies the whole
preceding horror tradition with a vein of surrealism and an anti-bourgeois rhetoric. Dylan is
supported mainly by his trusty sidekick Groucho (a Groucho Marx lookalike) who adds humor
to this grisly genre and Dylan’s sombre temperament. The series is mainly set in London, where
the protagonist lives, though he occasionally travels elsewhere.
