I even remember the episode that the other person talked about the flash back when the Phantom sent his 2 sons to fetch some thing and the eldest son left his younger brother for dead only to have there minder who mite have been a phantom i dont remember bring the younger brother back only for the older brother who returned with the object to discover that his younger brother had been given the role of the new Phantom and as I sit here writing this I am remembering more and more about it lol
