JUNGLE COMICS Volume 1

Collects #1-3, 1940.

Jungle Comics ran for almost 15 years, with a roster of creative talent like Lou Fine, Alex Blum, Fletcher Hanks, Chuck Winter, Art Peddy, Dick Briefer, Will Eisner, Rafael Astarita, Charles Sultan, and Bob Powell. Alex Blum created Kaanga, Lord of the Jungle, who after losing his family in the Congo, was adopted by a local tribe of "ape-men" where he tackled everything from bad animals to dinosaurs to witch doctors to Germans, appearing in all 163 issues! The "Mystery Woman of the Jungle," Fantomah, is a mysterious goddess-like being, with vast omnipotent magical power that can transform her into a frightening phantom/skeleton creature with floating skull and blonde hair. She wreaked her brutal vengeance on such bizarre foes as Org, who controlled giant spiders with a hypnotic drum, and Professor Zomax. And so much more, all reproduced cover to cover, just like the original comics! Also includes the origin of The White Panther, Tabu, Capt. Terry Thunder, Wambi, Camilla, The Red Panther and more. #1 features a Lou Fine cover, and #2 a Will Eisner cover!
