The 27th Phantom is featured in the 1980's Defenders of the Earth animated TV series, which takes place in the (then) future year of 2015. This version of the Phantom is different from how he is portrayed in the comics. By chanting either "By jungle law, the ghost who walks calls forth the power of ten tigers" or "By jungle birth rite,the ghost who walks calls forth the power of ten tigers" he is temporarily given superhuman strength. In the comics, the Phantom does not have any supernatural powers. The 27th Phantom has a daughter named Jedda.
