The Bateson-Sim version was reprinted in "Phantacea Revisited 1: The Damnation Brigade", which Phantacea Publications released in late 2012, early 2013. A couple of these pages were again reprinted in "Phantacea Revisited 2: Cataclysm Catalyst", which Phantacea Publications released in early 2014. Phantacea One was released in September 1977; Phantacea Two and Three in 1978; Phantacea Four in 1979; Phantacea Five and Six in 1980; the intended concluding issue Phantacea Seven was only partially completed and hence never released; Jim McPherson novelized most of the Phantacea comic book series over the course of a number of novels that have been released by Phantacea Publications in the 20-Noughts and 20-Teens. Parts of Phantacea One, Three, Four and Five were reprinted in "Phantacea Revisited 1: The Damnation Brigade". Parts of Phantacea One, Two, Four, Five, Six and Seven (unfinished, so hitherto unpublished) were collected in "Phantacea Revisited 2: Cataclysm Catalyst". Some of the reprinted material and the six unpublished pages originally intended for Phantacea Seven were digitally re-lettered by Jim McPherson in 2012 and 2013.
