Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs for June 13, 2019

Finally, Hemu is wising up to that phony jungle leader.

Yeesh, ape man; How many more natives you want Tantor to kill?

…and I suppose we’ll do all the digging, while you do all the pointing.

Tarzan must be serious now and ordering stuff from the Acme Catalog, his new nickname should be “Wile.E” .

“First we dig a deep pit. Then all of you hide in the bottom of the pit. Tantor, in his wildness, will jump in after you and be trapped. Simple!”

“But, but, but…”

“Relax. I’m from the government and I’m here to help!”

Once again, Tarzan only tells them half of the plan. If he told them all of it, I doubt they’d go along with it.

This had better work or the natives will abandon you.

Hemu: “Tarzan, this plan is the pits…”

This whole arc is the pits.

The men start snickering when Hemu tells Tarzan where he can put his new plan.

“That’s what you said the last two times. Face it: He’s smarter than you are.”
