The Phantom Blot, originally just named the Blot, is a villain originally created by Floyd Gottfredson for the Mickey Mouse newspaper comic strip storyline "Mickey Mouse Outwits the Phantom Blot". He has regularly menaced Mickey and his friends (and occasionally other Disney film characters) in comics, but rarely appeared in animation. Though he desires money and power, his greatest lust is for fame. Some of his plans have no monetary gain for him but their purpose is to spread fear to the public, adding to his reputation. The Blot is himself very vain and his desire for money and power is only surpassed by his desire to immortalize his name in "the annals of crime".

Notes[]

  • Although "All Ducks on Deck" marked the Blot's only appearance in any Disney Afternoon episode, he has appeared on the DuckTales reboot as an agent of F.O.W.L. Prior to that, he had previously returned to animation, voiced by John O'Hurley, in the Mickey Mouse Works segment "Mickey Foils the Phantom Blot" and the House of Mouse episodes "Where's Minnie?" and "House of Crime".
  • To date, none of the Phantom Blot's appearances in Disney Afternoon media have actually involved Mickey Mouse, his original nemesis. However, Darkwing Duck comic book writer Aaron Sparrow has noted that he wanted to do a story featuring the Blot that would've had Mickey teaming up with Darkwing,[1] which is possibly what was being teased by the Blot's brief appearance in "A Midsummer Gnat's Spree". Unfortunately, due to Disney cancelling the comic in favor of the DuckTales reboot, which Mickey was forbidden from even being mentioned in, this crossover will not likely ever be published.
