  1. Linguistic Flavor: Translators adapted the heroic dialogue of The Phantom into Khalis Punjabi (Pure Punjabi). Instead of "By the Skull of my father," a Punjabi Phantom might swear an oath that resonated with local agrarian or warrior culture.
  2. The Script Challenge: Unlike the flowing Devanagari script of Hindi, the Gurmukhi script required specialized typesetting. In the era of analog printing, producing a Gurmukhi Indrajal comic was a logistical effort, making these issues structurally different from their English counterparts.
  3. Cover Variations: Many Punjabi editions did not simply reprint the English cover. They often had unique cover layouts, where the title "Indrajal" was prominently displayed alongside the Gurmukhi title (e.g., ਇੰਦਰਜਾਲ ਕੌਮਿਕਸ).
