A Phantom fan once posted a short piece of fan fiction on a message board I frequent in which Christine elects to choose either the Phantom or Raoul by playing "Chutes and Ladders." The inherent silliness of the story just screamed out to be illustrated so I provided it with this piece. It not only allowed me to introduce my version of Raoul, but also show the Phantom unmasked.

The story and illustration appeared together in issue #12 of The Franc D'Ambrosio Fan Club Newsletter.
