Wednesday is new comic book day and your local comic book store now has, if you are lucky, the latest issue of Flash Gordon (#7) by Jeremy Adams and Tom Derenick from Mad Cave.

Major Spoilers has a preview.

The Phantom is coming to the Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam

The Phantom is back in a side-scrolling brawler, which itself is a good fit for the character and its last game being one sign of the times and now brawlers are back in. This latest incarnation of the character in a game uses an art style right in line with with Streets of Rage 4’s visuals, and between this and Mayhem Brawler, it’s become a go-to art style for beat-em-ups that allows for games to look fantastic with vivid color and a ton of detail and it holds true here.

The Phantom is coming to the Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam on March 13 for $22.99 and looks like a great pickup for anyone who enjoyed brawlers in the past, or who just wants to go through one with a hero.
