The Phantom Zone is a Superman limited four-issue-long series published in 1982, penned by Steve Gerber and illustrated by Gene Colan.Charlie Kweskill, who used to be known as the Kryptonian criminal Quex-Ul before losing his memory and powers, is living a peaceful life thanks to Clark Kent arranging a job for him in the Daily Planet. However, he has been recently plagued for terrible visions and nightmares of a strange alien world full of natural and manmade marvels... and terrible criminals whose misdeeds were punished by exiling them in a pocket dimension.Meanwhile, the Phantom Zoner inmates, led by General Dru-Zod, exploit the fact that Charlie is a former Phantom Zoner to breach into his mental defenses and influence him into stealing electronical components to assemble a makeshift Phantom Zone Projector. When attempting to stop him, Superman is sent into the Zone together with Charlie, whereas Zod and his band are released.Now the Phantom Zoners are free to carry out General Zod's plan to annihilate Superman's adoptive people, and only a few heroes -Supergirl, Batman, Wonder Woman...- are available to defend Earth. Meanwhile, Superman and his friend try to make their way back to the physical world by travelling across several nightmarish alternate dimensions until confronting the Aethyr, the cosmic horror who created the Zone.The Phantom Zone was the first story featuring the Zoners to be published after the release of Superman II, and to be affected by Terence Stamp's iconic performance. For the first time since the 60's, General Zod is the Zoners' leader instead of Jax-Ur's henchman. As for Jax-Ur, who used to be mainly a (mad) scientist, is now a strongman and Zod's enforcer, filling Non's role in Superman II.Steve Gerber wrote an epilogue -of questionable canonicity- four years later in DC Comics Presents #97, the very last Pre-Crisis Superman story (due to Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow? being declared an alternate universe).Although this storyline became non-canon after Crisis on Infinite Earths, some concepts like the Aethyr were reused later by stories such like Escape from the Phantom Zone. | |

A Form You Are Comfortable With: After flying into the Aethyr's core, Superman and Quex-Ul are intercepted by a giant, purple bat-like dragon head. Superman believes he has found the Aethyr, but the dragon's head explains the very universe where they have gone into is the Aethyr. Superman is addressing to a mere interface which he can understand and talk to. | |

Failed a Spot Check | |
The Phantom Zone (Comic Book) / int_21e5b9c7 | comment |
Failed a Spot Check: Clark Kent hears that his co-worker Charlie Kweskill has vanished after falling sick. Since Charlie used to be his enemy Quex-Ul before losing his memory, Superman decides to check on him. His X-Ray Vision finds nothing unusual in Charlie's apartment so Superman leaves, but he is unable to shake the feeling he has missed something very important. As General Zod smugly points out, Superman was so worried about and focused on finding Charlie that he did not notice the latter's lead-lined closet, which should have led him to wonder why Charlie owned it, and whether his ex-enemy was hiding something from him. | |

Thou Shalt Not Kill: Superman confronts General Zod, who laughs that Kal-El won't kill him. Superman, though, replies with "I can't take your life, much as I'm tempted. But my code doesn't say a damn thing about not battering you to within an inch of it, murderer". Once Zod is out cold for a long, long time, Superman, still holding him by the tunic, thinks "And there are times I've considered chucking that code entirely." | |

And the Science Council deemed that throwing criminals into a nightmare dimension was more humane than killing them or rocketing them into space. | |

The Teetotaler: When Charlie Kweskill passes out on the office's floor, Perry White wonders if he might be lapsing into an alcoholic coma, but his co-workers find it unlikely: Charlie hardly samples something stronger than herbal tea. | |

Pocket Dimension | |
The Phantom Zone (Comic Book) / int_5cbb67eb | comment |
Pocket Dimension: Beyond the energy wall circling the Phantom Zone there are several small, weird and half-empty universes. Superman and Charlie travelled through a storm-battered rocky place, inhabited by weird flying carnivorous creatures, a temple inhabited by headless priestesses, a castle surrounded by clouds... Superman eventually discovers those worlds are so strange because they were spawned and warped by the Aethyr's ever-changing will. | |

What Happened to the Mouse?: Mon-El is never seen again (in this story) after unsuccessfully trying to find someone to help oppose Zod before the mass escape. Many Phantom Zone inmates who appeared in past issues while serving long sentences and didn't get pardons, like Cha-Mel, Gor-Nu, and Bal-Gra, are mentioned a few times but never appear during either the escape or the epilogue (where the remaining Phantom Zone residents are trapped in a crystal). Gra-Mo (the last prisoner sent into space in a rocket before the invention of the Phantom Zone, which is shown in a flashback in this comic) is also absent, even though an earlier comic has him sent to the Phantom Zone after his rocket reaches Earth and he fights Superman. | |

Unfinished, Untested, Used Anyway: Deconstructed. Renegade scientist Jax-Ur decided to test his new guidance system by launching a missile with an explosive payload into space. Jax-Ur meant to destroy a meteorite, but the guidance system failed, and his missile destroyed an inhabited moon instead, incinerating five hundred persons. Jax-Ur mind-controls Quex-Ul into building a makeshift Phantom Zone Projector using Earth's crude materials. The homemade device blows up when Quex-Ul presses the power button, but it successfully pulls the Zoners out of the Zone... and Superman and Quex-Ul into it. | |

The Phantom Zone (Comic Book) / int_af2547c9 | comment |
Informed Flaw: One panel in the opening scene goes over a Long List of Phantom Zone prisoners who appear in earlier comics but remain offscreen in this one. They are described as a “legion of infamy�, each responsible for “heinous� crimes. However, some of them them are only guilty of lesser crimes like theft (Ak-Var and Tra-Gob) or forbidden scientific experiments that didn’t hurt anyone (Vorb-Un), and several of them (including the aforementioned three) were even paroled and allowed to live in Kandor prior to this story. Possibly justified, since their crimes may be considered worse by the standards of the more advanced Kryptonian society, and the Phantom Zone inmates giving Quex-El dreams about the prisoners may not care about that point. | |
