Howdy: A very weird set of political comics here. In 1989 and 1990 the Australian government produced a difficult to describe set of booklets featuring Lee Falk's PHANTOM to teach Aborigines how to register to vote and how to run for office. No explanation is provided for how the Phantom has anything to do with Aboriginal culture.

An unintended pun, "Phantom Votes" is often the term for phony votes or useless votes, and is commonly referred to rigging with small minority groups. But enough about that, just look at the art down there! Click either cover to read each issue in its entirety.
