The last time? When was that? Does this mean that the big deep wide pit he dig up the last time to take the big balloon till the centre of earth is still there?
Called from his home in the African jungle to great adventure, Tarzan of the Apes summons his Waziri spearmen and joins the Jason Gridley expedition to seek the artic opening in the earth’s surface that leads to the inner world of Pellucidar. Sailing by airship, they glide almost imperceptibly from the world that we know to the strange and terrifying land that lies beneath the earth’s crust. There, where time does not exist, where neither Tarzan’s jungle lore nor the charts of scientists are of any use as guides they face the problem of rescuing an American adventurer who is held captive by the blood-thirsty Korsars.
Here, on land and sea and even in the air, lurk unknown perils. Tarzan is carried off in the talons of a ferocious bat-like creature to its mountain eyrie. Slashing his way through trackless forests and the dangerous swamps, outwitting his cruel human captors, Tarzan faces the most terrific encounters of his adventure-crammed life when, rescuing the beautiful Jana, known as The Red Flower, he falls into the hands of the reptile-men who, astride gigantic lizards, move with lightning speed and relentless ferocity to spread terror throughout the land.
There, where time does not exist maybe because gravity at the center has distorted space-time. The actual math behind this premise is beyond my pay grade, but makes as much sense as anything else here.
The missing forth panel: “Hey, Dad, can I bring my girlfriend? She’s got her own zodiac boat. You never know, it might come in handy. And can her other boyfriend come, too? He’s kind of a jerk, but he could film our whole adventure, as long as you don’t mind him messing with the ‘script.’ And, Dad, why can’t Mom come, too? She never gets to go on adventures!”
When was the last time that phallic balloon passed aeronautical inspection, is its license and registration current, will the Pelucidar police arrest Tarzan and company? Many questions to be answered in the coming (UGH) months. Plus I’ll venture to say that bleached blonde bimbo twit Anne and not-so-mucho mas macho Mike Machado will be getting it on in preparation for working long tedious hours on the old taco truck in crime-ridden LA!

Some good covers on some of the editions.

No need to go to Pelucidar Tarzan. The blonde queens are better up here on the surface.

Better get Anne as she’d enjoy the ride.

This is the same craft! As if Korak didn’t remember stumbling to get around the #@&x in the garage for the last ten years.

Korak’s baby face seems to have aged in the last panel. It looks like Tarzan is talking to his twin or a clone.
