After not reappearing in the series, Dark Danny finally makes his return. Counts as a Long Bus Trip as he's been gone eighteen years in real time. Took a Level in Kindness: Dash Baxter, who previously bullied Danny, is shown to be on better terms with him after the events of the finale, as he initially calls him "nerd" before correcting himself and calling him by his actual name. This is rendered moot now that Dash no longer knows Fenton and Phantom are the same person. The art was great and very similar but distinct enough from the original show that it felt it could move around more (some shots were so cool to look at). I really had no idea what the story was going to be about, but I really liked it and it felt like a 2 part episode from the show haha. Honestly, this book is basically like a special. I'm seeing some reactions to it where people don't really seem to like that it's really not that wide in focus, but I don't think it was supposed to be? It's clearly intended to set up a new status quo for any future stories that might happen and if there's a continuation, it'll probably focus more on something else. And it's apparently selling pretty well, so there might be a continuation? Growing the Beard: Following A Family Thing, the series seems to be coming into its own. Even Word of God has said that it was the story where the series would start really forming.

Was Once a Man: It's revealed that all ghosts — even the Undead Abominations Danny's fought across the franchise — are the remnant manifestations of the emotions of living beings from Earth. They simply degraded into less-human forms over time. Vlad undergoes a power boost himself when he comes to terms with his faults and finds a new resolve.Status Quo Is God: The story erases everyone's knowledge of Danny's involvement in the season 3 finale, returning Danny to being a Hero with Bad Publicity whose parents think his alter ego is a menace. The one difference is that Danny's Relationship Upgrade with Sam is still intact. Also, straight up, this art style is an improvement on the show. Staying totally on model, especially to Hartman's style, kinda works for comedy, but it makes for some janky-ass fight scenes, especially since the show was apparently relatively low-budget. Going with more dynamic art makes it look more modern and gives it a level of dynamicism that wasn't present originally. The complete first season was released on DVD on September 13, 2011 by Shout! Factory, the first part of Season 2 released on April 3, 2012, with the second part released on August 28, and Season 3 on October 14, 2014. For those going for the Full Monty, however, a complete series DVD was released on January 28th, 2014. All episodes are currently (as of Jan 2021) also available on Apple TV. First off, I was super excited for this book. I literally cried a few times while reading because of how surreal it was to be experiencing new, official, Danny Phantom content after 16 years (not counting Fairly Odd Phantom.) also I would love to erase Phantom Planet and this would be a great way of overwriting that finale)

Untrusting Community: What the new Amity Park becomes after Danny chooses to erase his part in stopping the Disasteroid. Mayor Montez makes his town to be anti-ghost by creating an official branch of ghost hunters, as well as adding mandatory ghost fighting programs in public schools, and declaring Danny Phantom Public Ghost Enemy #1 again. Danny still chooses to be the hero to earn the town's trust again. The Unmasqued World: While likely a dubious Loose Canon in relation to the main series, the book shows that Danny's secret as Danny Phantom was indeed revealed to the entire world. Unfortunately, it ends up being undone to reverse Dark Danny's actions. In "Stolen Years", Danny and Sam are reverted to five year olds. Some time later, Butch Hartman did a video of what Danny and Sam would've been like ten years ago.

A Family Thing undoes Vlad's Motive Decay from the third season when he tries to brainwash Danny into his son.

It’s kind of surreal that there has been no official new Danny Phantom content in 16 years. The original three-season show — running from 2003 to 2007 — was a personal favorite of mine growing up, being between the ages of 8 and 12 when it originally aired. And I continue to hold a nostalgic warmth for it as an adult, even as my fascination with children’s shows has generally waned. When the release of a new Danny Phantom graphic novel was announced last year, I immediately wanted to know what it was about. Gabriela Rodríguez Epstein is a bestselling graphic novelist based in Austin, TX. She has penned this original graphic novel, capturing the essence of the Danny Phantom universe. Characters Official Couple: Danny and Sam, who had underwent a Relationship Upgrade towards the end of Phantom Planet. Thankfully, it's the one thing Danny still retains after he's forced to perform a Cosmic Retcon to undo Dark Danny's damage. It has the barebones of a potential comic miniseries or a pitch for a reboot especially based on the ending. Even if it never gets additional content or a sequel, it's still a nostalgic, well written romp into the universe that I have no qualms recommending. The writing is great for the most part, with everyone acting in character and as they would in the show. There were plenty of moments with Danny and Sam showing each other affection now that they're together. Dan Phantom's dialogue was amazing, but it tetered off a little towards the end (more on that later.) Though I thought this was a good story, there is a lot to criticize here.

Tropes that apply to the following movies go to their designated pages:

Danny: Seeing the guy who's spent the last few years trying to destroy me, break up my parents, and who almost caused the destruction of the world? Overall, I thought it was a fun book, and was thoroughly entertaining, but it didn't quite live up to the hype. Hopefully it sells well so they consider reviving the show though. Halfway through the airing of the second season, Butch Hartman announced the series would end with a shortened, 12-episode third season. Dedicated fans orchestrated various petitions and small organizations to overturn the decision, but, despite these protests, the production of Danny Phantom finished in February 2007, with no plans for future episodes. Despite this, Danny Phantom now maintains a cult following that regularly calls for a series revival, with Hartman being one of the most vocal about this. In "Facing the Future", Danny uses his Ghostly Wail in combination with his duplication power against Vlad. Several months later, Ben 10: Alien Force introduces Echo-Echo, an alien form of Ben's that uses that particular maneuver quite often.
