Notes[]
- Tex Maxon only began his masked identity as The Phantom Rider with issue #11, with several of his adventures appearing to have the mask drawn or colored in as an afterthought.
- In many of the stories, it appears that, despite it being a masked identity, the Phantom Rider was known to be Maxon.
