Magnus Magnusson wrote a Phantom story in 1972: "The Thousand Tigers" (Swedish: "De tusen tigrarna"). It was based on a synopsis by Lennart Hartler and deals with why there are tigers in Bangalla, home country of the Phantom.
He began collecting notes and comic clips from Swedish newspapers and weekly magazines, in addition to various comic books. He used his knowledge of Mandrake to write "Mandrake - Magikern" in 2003, but no Swedish publishing house was willing to publish it.
In 2011 he contributed an article to the book "Lee Falk – Storyteller" and in 2016 he wrote "Mandrake the Magician: The magical wonder of a generation" for "The Hidden Kingdom of Murderers: Sundays 1935–1937" by Titan Comics.
