Outside of those shorts, The Mickey Mouse Club reruns, and occasional novelty stabs (Disco Mickey!), he was mostly known for his role as maestro of the Disney Parks.

As October marches on, it is time to look at the third issueof Mickey Mouse Adventures as the Phantom Blot makes his triumphant return in Detectives in Disgrace. Written by Jack Sutter with the plot by Paul Halas. Drawn by Antoni Bancells Pujadas.

The Phantom Blot’s history is murky and mysterious ashimself. One of Floyd Gottfredson’s most enduring one shots, he has sincebecome one of Mickey’s tenacious and enduring foes. First appearing in theclassic Mickey Outwits the Phantom Blot, heonly appeared in reprints of the story before both the Americans and theItalians hit upon the idea of reintroducing him to the Disney comic world inthe 1960s thus proving the character’s durability. The Western version oftendownplayed the Blot’s threatening side in favor of more comedic adventures andtone. Not unsurprisingly since most of Western’s material lean towards thechildlike.

When the Blot is “on,” he truly serves as an inspiring anddevoted foe. Some of his best stories like this tale and Darkenblot detail the stories of a determined foe with strategiccunning mixed with personal revenge on the Mouse. He is Mickey’s Machiavellianfoe.

The story starts in a basement where a group of mastercriminals dressed like 1920s gangsters (the classic look) are discussing how todeal with Mickey Mouse and Goofy. Apparently, the dynamic duo has put half ofthe society in jail! (Mickey should run for office with a record like that!).Hilariously, the suggestions range from dumping them in the river, shootingthem, and blowing them up. And then the most dangerous criminal of them all thePhantom Blot arrives to disdainfully turn down some crude methods.

I say hilariously because while the Phantom Blot’s resultingplan is outrageously successful, it is also complicated and convoluted comparedto merely pugging Mickey and Dippy Dawg with lead. But it is a Disney comic andbecause of the guidelines, the suggestion can be made but possibly carried out?Nope. Won’t fly. Parents will be mad! I am not suggesting that mob hits becomea basic characteristic of Mickey comics but it is amusing to see how even themost evil villains are forced into these plans. And not even the best storiesare immune from it. Mickey Mouse Joinsthe Foreign Legion (my all-time favorite MM comic) uses this same trope.Trigger Hawkes, Pete’s accomplice, suggests just killing Mickey but Pete, indeference of the standard, vetoes it saying they will get caught. Now, Pete’scaution works in the framework of the story, shooting Mickey would raisesuspicion in the Legion but here shooting Mickey and Goofy would be thesimplest maneuver. But no, the Phantom Blot wants a smear campaign which fitswith his original character.

So the underworld decides to follow old Blotty. And the Blotharkening back to his Gottfredson’s roots leaves a note stating how he will robthe Vandergilt’s Jewelry Shop at 3 pm. Mickey and Goofy set up a trap but theBlot is able to escape and the newspaper article has the Blot promising to robthe Savings Bank next.

Mickey and Goofy capture the Blot but it turns out that theyfell for a dummy. The newspaper article mocks Mickey and Goofy while showcasingthe Blot’s next challenge. And the Blot in typical grandiose fashion will havea television crew on hand. So Chief O’Hara hatches a plot with as he puts it“real police officers.” Which is pretty amusing considering he usually needsMickey to catch the special criminals. Man, no respect for the Mouse. Mickeyand Goofy are assigned the back door and special walkie-talkies but the Blot islistening in and he makes a slight adjustment to the equipment.

The Blot slips through the air conditioning vents (a classicstaple) and uses the walkie-talkie to send out fake instructions to the duo.Thus, Mickey and Goofy drive off to apprehend the villain while the Blot hangsten on the car. Of course as must be the case in these stories, O’Hara takeswhat he sees at face value and sees they will have to arrest Mickey Mouse. TheBlot jumps off and Mickey and Goofy learn the sad truth. This time, their gaffmakes the evening news.

The low rent criminals are all celebrating their gains andpetty crimes but the Blot has his eyes set on a bigger prize. Anyway that nightat Mickey’s house, he catches a clumsy criminal trying to rob his house. Thethief lets a reference slip about robbing Fort Knocks (get it?) and Mickeyponders the possibility. The following day, Mickey and Goofy leave on the train(in the 1990s?) to the delight of the Blot and friends but Mickey and Goofyjump off.

The following morning, the Blot’s crew kidnaps securityofficers for their uniforms as part of the Fort Knocks swipe but Mickey andGoofy are also there in disguise. (It is now that I am regretting that thisspoof on Goldfinger didn’t include gassing some gangsters) but they are caughtbecause their ID cards are fake. But of course, Mickey has a plan for escapingjail. Meanwhile the Blot and cronies have hijacked the gold and ready to blowFort Knocks. So Mickey in his second Indiana Jones ploy of the series hitches aride under one of the trucks.

The siren alarms whistle while Mickey is trying to figureout why the convoy is slowing down rather than speeding up. The Blot’s plan isto disguise his vehicles as standard delivery trucks and head to the secretairfield outside of town.

Goofy is unable to hold on much longer and is luckily dumpedoff near a phone. But Mickey showing that daring and risk disconnects thetruck’s fuel line forcing a stoppage. He sneaks into the driver’s seat and gunsthe engine as the fuel line is reconnected.

He crashes the truck to barricadethe convoy as the Phantom Blot begins to think Mickey is behind theproceedings. Suddenly, the police alerted by Goofy arrive to seize the crowd.But the Blot makes a run for it with Mickey on his tail. He and Mickey have abattle among the rocks which ends in Mickey submerged in the pond and the Blotdashing for his plane. Mickey foils his escape by shoving a massive boulderupon his plane to capture him. And Chief O’Hara, Mickey, and Goofy all share ahearty laugh at the end.

Out of all the stories thus far in the line, this tale wasdefinitely the finest one. Its length (20+ pages) allowed for more developmentand stronger character moments. The Phantom Blot, when written correctly, isalways a fun villain. Mickey was given plenty of active character moments thatallowed his inventiveness and resolve to shine through.

Great story.
