"A NEW PHANTOM RISES! A new combatant lurks deep within the jungle— familiar but different. The Council of Phantoms has chosen a new heir with a different form of justice. Meanwhile, Kro-Tan's sphere of influence is growing, and his grip is tightening. It's clear that times have changed, and new threats challenge these heroes on a deeper and more personal level…"

My DoE collection is growing here. I just bought my Mandrake figure today. I bought Flash and Phantom on Amazon, Lothar at Target and Garax at my local comic con this past year. All that's left is Ming the Merciless.

I hope they get figures of Rick, Jedda, and LJ (and Kshin too, I guess) since they made Zuffy. Castra and Krotan would be a bonus.
