“Behold his noble figure!” says the A-Lur warrior, and we know just what he means. Russ Manning’s ape man is heavily muscled, but is unbound in his lithe power; a form infused with natural authority and heroism – but never a superhero. He is, instead, the summit of human potential.
In panel after panel, Manning does precisely what is necessary for magnificence – never a brushstroke more or less. Everything seems chiseled in its proper place to achieve a very efficient beauty. The script, which never disappoints, is by Gaylord DuBois. The cover is painted by George Wilson. This is from Tarzan No. 167, May 1967. All scans are from my own comic.

This issue was alot of fun to read, and despite the wonky appearance of the featured chicks jungle attire, I enjoyed everything about this "tale".
Wowiee-Kazowie, as my ol' pal Bozo used to say. What a tasty treat of comic type goodness!
Chuck. I loved her ponytails!
Mitchell: Good stuff, for sure.
