In "Lair of the King-Serpent," Fantomah faces a new threat when Ghazia, driven by ambition and wielding deception, disguises the Spotted Men as mummies to seize control of Khefra. With the city under siege, Fantomah summons the ancient gods of Egypt to expose the ruse, turning the impostors to dust and forcing Ghazia to flee. Written by W. B. Hovious and illustrated by George Appel, this 1944 tale blends supernatural dread with ancient mystery, all framed by Joe Doolin’s striking cover art.
