Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs for December 07, 2020

And he’s not speaking softly.

Edgar Rice Burroughs wrote the Tarzan series from 1912 to about 1944. On the other hand, Merian Cooper produced the original film “Kong” in 1933. I wonder if one inspired the other with the giant gorilla vs giant prehistoric monster fight scene? I can’t seem to locate any information.

King Kong Vs Mammoth!

Is the ape very large or is this merely an attempt to depict depth of focus? Tune in tomorrow, same Ape Time, same Ape Channel.

More gorilla fan service, I was hoping for a Dino as well…

Is it just perspective or is the Bolgani the same size as a the Tantor?

And the cavalry arrives!

He lumbered with some lumber; he’s going to end up with a mammoth headache.

If this ape is a friend of the ape Tarzan killed back on November 24th then Tarzan and Fawna are definitely not out of the woods yet (pun intended).

Uh oh. All the relatives of the animals T’s killed are ganging up on him. Next will be a herd of angry deer.

Awesome. A carnivorous gorilla, whose favorite dish is mammoth served warm.

That gigantic Bolgani grunts to wooly bully Tantor, “Hey, I know that guy in the tree…..I’ll help dislodge him and the furry woman so we both can have a delicious lunch!”

Middle panel said “They were pondering their plight.” Were they pondering an escape, or were they pondering each other for a last “Oh, what the he11 … why not?”

King Kong versus Mammothzilla.

Wait ’till big gorilla finds out Tarzan is the guy who shot his little brother in the back.

It’s Mighty Joe Young!
