A Brief Thought on "Fantomas"

Fantomas, down below, is something that is part of my DNA at this point. I have a fascination with characters that can change identities and this particular character fits the model to a 'T.' Plus the fact that you get actual film footage of Paris circ. 1915 is simply amazing and beautiful.

But what is Fantomas? To me he always seems to be the collective fear of the powerful - and therefore is the 'charm' of the Fantomas series.
