Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs for June 25, 2018

Unnoticed – except by the GIANT SQUID at the entrance !

Those reeds would work like snorkels, not scuba gear. They would need to stay near the surface to breathe. Swimming in through the cave will involve holding their breaths, then perhaps the reeds will be useful inside the pirates’ lair.

Great undersea art work in panel 3.

Warrior 1: Look, he brought Ole Man Moze.

Warrior 2: How can you tell?

Warrior 1: The Depends are a dead giveaway.

What would Tarzan do if someone was unaccounted for? Find him, throw him into the water and make him go?

In panel 1, it looks like the warrior in the water is expressing some doubt as to the soundness of this plan and Tarzan is “urging” him on by hitting him with the reed.

Also, has far as being “warriors”, none of them are armed. The guys getting into the barrels didn’t look to be carrying weapons either. It will be interesting to see how they are going to launch an attack on the gun and sword bearing pirates.

A giant squid! Cool! You can’t just draw a thing like that then not use it in the story. It’s like what Chekov* said about showing a gun. (*Not the one from “Star Trek.”)
