    Bart and Judd clones in panel 2? I thought Tarzan killed one of those guys a couple of weeks ago. Maybe everyone in Luanda has a doppleganger. C’mon Jungle Man, it’s “Ms. Big” and her name is…….Serena!

    The “Tarzan in Color” series of 18 books (some are highly priced) reflect all of the Hal Foster/Burne Hogarth comics from 1931 to 1952. Some you can find on Ebay and Amazon.

    KATMAN—THEY ARE EXPENSIVE—BUT A TREASURE TO HAVE—I STILL THINK ERB’S BEST TARZAN NOVEL IS “TARZAN AND THE JEWELS OF OPAR”—I USED TO KNOW ERB’S GRANDSON DANTON BURROUGHS, WHO SADLY PASSED AWAY A FEW YEARS AGO-

    Don’t forget that NMB did a B/W edition of the Rubimore Sunday strips (15b). Too bad it wasn’t in color.

    Burne Hogarth’s “Tarzan of the Apes” (Hardcover) in color and "Jungle Tales of Tarzan (Softcover) B/W are published by Watson/Guptill and still available and affordable on Ebay. The comic versions of Jesse Marsh (Dell) 9 volumes and Joe Kubert (DC) 3 volumes are printed by Dark Horse in hardcover & color. They sell for about $35 a volume. I own volumes 1 – 16 of the “Tarzan in Color” series and re-read them often.

    KATMAN—REMEMBER HAL FOSTER’S 1929 VERSION OF TARZAN OF THE APES? IT WAS GREAT TOO!

    @quartermain—-No, but I am certain you are right. I grew up with the Dell comic’s Tarzan by Jesse Marsh, the movie Tarzans Weissmuller, Barker, and Scott. The World Telegram & Sun newspaper also ran a daily strip by Hogarth (I think). I also enjoyed the Frank Frazetta/Bob Powell “Thun’da” series although it was short-lived—-only 6 issues now compiled by Dark Horse in hardcover.
