#325 - December 2025 Newspaper Stories, Comics & News Review

These podcasts are our attempt to wrap up everything from comic reviews to catching up on the latest newspaper Comics Kingdom stories and related news from around the world. The hardest thing is to try and keep abreast of everything that happens in a month and stay concise - we usually fail. We will admit, the boys did get off-topic and distracted from the runsheet in a few places.

If we do not discuss the Phantom comics from your country, that is because we are still looking for someone to review them for us. Please get in touch with us if that interests you. Otherwise, we love comments and feedback from the Phantom phans from around the world. You can either email us, leave your comments at our YouTube channel, and/or leave them at our social media platforms on Facebook, Twitter, and/or Instagram. 

If you're one of the phans who can only listen to some parts of the podcast, below is a timeline of what we discussed.
