Jermayn Parker goes solo as he interviews Fantomen creator Mikael Bergkvist who is one of the few creators who draws and writes Phantom stories for the Fantomen magazine. He joins the likes of Joan Boix, Hans Lindahl, Mikael Sol, Felmang and Lennart Moberg.
Mikael is an interesting person whose career has been interwoven with several other known creators, including Fantomen writer Dai Darell and American creators like Neal Adams and Joe Rubenstein.
We go over his two stories, his career, him growing up with the character, being a part of the Fantomen Club and much more.
His two stories are:
- "The Mark of the Phantom" by Mikael Bergkvist, with art by Gerardo Canelo (Published in Fantomen 13/2024)
- "In the Shadow of a Friend" by Mikael Bergkvist (Published in Fantomen 24/2025)
Please note. Due to some technical difficulties, some of the times, the camera is a little jumpy. We apologise.
