Mystery author David Liss makes his comic book debut this week, writing the first issue of Daring Mystery Comics 1 (70th Anniversary Special), which features the Phantom Reporter. The Phantom Reporter first appeared in Daring Mystery Comics 3 in the early 1940s.
By day, cub reporter ... by night, relentless scourge of the underworld! But what could drive All-American collegiate champ Dick Jones to become a masked vigilante? Why does this high-society dilettante fight for the underprivileged? And what is the blood-soaked mystery that will take gun-toting terror from the swankiest Park Ave penthouse to the shadowed mean streets on the hunt for justice? Find out as Edgar Award-winning novelist Liss teams with artist Jason Armstrong to tell the never-before-revealed origin of the Phantom Reporter!
Back in the real world, as it were, Liss' third mystery featuring pugilist turned private investigator Benjamin Weaver, The Devil's Company, was recently published by Random House.
