Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs for November 06, 2024

A very “sharp” plan is unfolding.

THE KNIFE!! FROM NOWHERE! AGAIN!

Okay Belthar. This is where you says your prayers.

1. Either one of the chariot lions is the friendly lion and upturns the chariot as it breaks free to help Tarz.

2. A herd of Tantor swoops in and tramples Belthar.

3. Our hero somersaults onto Belthar’s back and the rest is history.

Hopefully, enraged and wounded, blinded by blood, Belthar leaps at the nearest victim and into the chariot taking Nemone by the throat.

Tarzan: “Here, kitty, kitty, kitty… just a few more feet… yes… don’t look down, there is no pit to trap you…”

Stand your ground , today’s lesson.

Call me crazy but I’m going to go out on a limb here and say Tarzan will beat the lion and not get a scratch on him (again)!

Nemone wants to be right there when it happens huh ? Be careful what you wish for woman .

A rare view of concern on Tarzan’s face. He’s usually got his arms crossed, looking like Washington crossing the Delaware.

Suddenly, Tarzan puts a tin of Fancy Treats in front of Belthar. The lion turns up his nose at it and stalks off to knock something off of something and take a nap…

Lion: “I want eats more tender than this bunch of tough muscle”

Run kittie!! Run! It’s a trap.

So Belthar knows its his final charge? He’s awfully fatalistic.

Duck underneath his soft underbelly and thrust your magic knife upward….gut him from from mane to tail. Problem solved Tarzanacus!!
