This list is based on original research by Barry Stubbersfield (Queensland, Australia) conducted in the early 1980s. Barry was assisted by King Features with some inaccurate information on dates for stories, but only a tiny fraction of story titles were supplied (often incorrect!). Barry's lists were subsequently published by Frew and have been added to and modified by myself. Barry wished to acknowledge the assistance he received from Wally Bratasiuk (Adelaide, SA), Rosemarie Daniello (King Features Syndicate NY, USA) and Thomas McGeehan (Santa Anna, USA).Story titles are shown as they were given in the strips, wherever available. Alternative titles are shown in parentheses. The most recent issue of each story in the Frew Phantom comic is indicated by the Last column. Generally, issue numbers greater than #910 are complete and unedited reprints.
Some Trivia:
The shortest daily stories were Adventure in Algiers (20 Jun - 23 Jul 1938) and The Wisdom of Solomon (23 Jan - 25 Feb 1956) which both ran for 5 weeks.
The longest daily story was The Phantom Goes To War (2 Feb 1942 - 9 Jan 1943) which ran for 49 weeks.

- Lee Falk was the sole writer of all stories up to and including The Albee (D194). This equates to almost 20,000 individual daily strips in 63 years!
- The plot for Terror at the Opera (D195) was created by Lee Falk from his hospital bed during his last days. Most of the script was subsequently finished by his wife, Elizabeth Falk.
- The Ghost Wall (D196) was written by Tony De Paul, and is the only daily story to have finished mid-week. The story was intended to form part of Egmont's publishing schedule, but was subsequently selected for use in the daily strip. The original Egmont version, with art by Joan Boix appeared in Fantomen (Sweden) and Fantomet (Norway) Nr.25/1999 on 2 Dec and 7 Dec, respectively.
- The Halloween Kidnappers (D197) was written by Claes Reimerthi. The story was intended to form part of Egmont's publishing schedule, but was subsequently selected for use in the daily strip. The original Swedish version, with art by Hans Lindahl appeared in Fantomen Nr.22/1999 on 21 Oct ... by coincidence (or design) the same day the daily commenced! The original Norwegian version was published in Fantomet Nr.22/1999 on 27 Oct.
- Since about 2003, the scripts are independently written by Tony De Paul, only calling on Egmont's Ulf Granberg as a consultant. The exception is when De Paul was injured in a motorcycle accident and Claes Reimerthi filled in with The Connoisseurs (D209).
- The Viper God (D210) was an adaptation of the Egmont story Death in Central Park by Tony De Paul and Joan Boix. The story was originally published in Fantomen (Sweden) and Fantomet (Norway) Nr.12/1998, and then an English translation by Frew in #1209. This was the fourth Swedish story to be adapted from the comic book to the newspaper comic strip medium.
- Paul Ryan succeeded George Olesen and Keith Williams as the current artist for the dailies commencing on 31 January 2005, part way through D213.
