This week Thoughtballoons features our first female hero, and by far the most obscure character we've yet had to come up with a 1-page adventure for. Blonde Phantom was a pulp heroine introduced in the 1940s by Timely Comics (the original name for Marvel). Louise Mason was a mild-mannered secretary of PI Mark Mason by day... and a sexy crime fighter by night.
This was a great opportunity to write something I've never tried before - a locked room mystery. But would I be able to pull it off in one page? I remembered the old Mike Mist Minute Mysteries that used to run in Ms. Tree courtesy of Max Allan Collins and Terry Beatty, so I knew it was possible. You be the judge of whether I succeeded...

Next week, it's my turn to pick. Oh, who shall it be...?
