Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs for September 23, 2019

So, when crossing the Sahara on foot, remember to bring at least one vulture.

Introducing Perdue Vulture, “Sweeter than Deer”.

Next: Tarzan turns into a lush!

….ummmm, a lush green jungle, I mean.

And he opened the first of the “Healthy Vultureburgers” restaurant chain.

…and then Tarzan woke up in the desert, realizing it had all been a dream.

Raw vulture – the breakfast of champions! ;-)

So it doesn’t taste like chicken?

Looks like Tarzan is happily running toward a huge python ready to strike in the last panel!

I’ve seen empty deserts and lush jungles, but I’ve never seen them right next to each other. It’s like an eco-wall.

I for one would love to see the slides of the parasite content in Tarzan’s gut.

I can’t say with any degree of certainty, but I do have to wonder if Dick Van Buren didn’t slightly exaggerate the total food value of a dead vulture for an almost moribund human when he wrote this episode.

Was that vulture blood or kickable Joy juice? I t sure did put spring into his step.

Ah, there’s just nothing better than a good vulture dinner! We like to make hot vulture sandwiches with scorpion gravy and fried spiders!

Alright! One meal of sweet vulture meat and Tarzan goes from death’s door to running a marathon.

so.. no salmonella, just a nice feathered energy bar.

WOW! Desert to Jungle in one panel. Certain death to vigorous running man in one panel. What else can be done in the comics? :-)
