In October 1975 Newton's first issue of "The Phantom", #67, was published. Newton would pencil and ink all of his Phantom work and would supply a cover painting for every issue he drew. Newton’s short run on the book featured two classic Newton pieces at Charlton. Issue #70 of "The Phantom" stars Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall, Sydney Greenstreet, Peter Lorre, and Claude Rains and is a mixture of "Casablanca", "The African Queen", "The Maltese Falcon", and "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre."
