Timeline

1962

His first Phantom Sunday page was published on May 20, 1962 and his last on September 18, 1994.

1961

In 1961, upon the death of The Phantom artist Wilson McCoy, who had succeeded creator Lee Falk and subsequent artist Ray Moore, King Features hired Barry to take over that strip. Barry remained on it for more than 30 years until his retirement in 1994. Barry frequently used pencil artists on the strip, working primarily as an inker, though he often drew entire stories when time permitted.

Barry's first Phantom daily strip was published on August 21, 1961 and his last on September 3, 1994.

1957

Barry assisted his brother Dan on the Tarzan comic strip from United Feature Syndicate and the Flash Gordon comic strip from King Features Syndicate. He was hired by Capp Studio to draw Martin Luther King and the Montgomery Story, a comics pamphlet published in 1957. Barry's signature was visible on the cover of the pamphlet's first edition, but a text box covered it in later printings. The Montgomery Story, written by Alfred Hassler and Benton Resnik and distributed by the Fellowship of Reconciliation, "taught young people not just about the event itself but also about nonviolence as a tool for social change." Many decades later, the comic inspired the March trilogy by Georgia Congressman John Lewis.

1928

Seymour "Sy" Barry (born March 12, 1928) is an American comic-book and comic-strip artist, best known for being the artist of the strip The Phantom for more than three decades.

Sy Barry was born in New York City in 1928, and is the brother of comics artist Dan Barry, who drew the Flash Gordon comic strip.

Barry began his professional career as his brother's art assistant, and by the late 1940s was working as a freelance comic-book artist, primarily as an inker for publishers including Lev Gleason, the Marvel Comics precursor Timely Comics, and the DC Comics precursor National Comics. At National, he worked on features including "Johnny Peril" and "The Phantom Stranger".
