The Phantom Blot Strikes (And Is Struck) Again

Introduced in the famed Mickey Mouse comic strip by Floyd Gottfredson, the Phantom Blot is literally a shadowy character, but that shady status works against him when he shadows Chief O'Hara in this one-page gag drawn by Paul Murry. This shrouded night-stalker is a perfect addition to our Countdown to Halloween 2021. This one-pager is from The Phantom Blot #4. Read more about it here. Also, pictured here: Artist and Disney historian Dean Brinkerhoff's excellent drawing of the Blot, created for his Inktober art project. Please check out Dean's Instagram account to see his Inktober art.
