Astonishing Tales #3
In "Back to the Savage Land," Ka-Zar and the Petrified Man return to the jungle realm they once called home, only to find it torn by violence—Zaladane, Queen Priestess of Garokk, has razed Tongah's village and now leads her people in a brutal assault on the lizard-men's kingdom. Written by Gerry Conway and brought to life with dynamic art by Barry Smith and inks by Sam Grainger, this 1970 Marvel adventure unfolds with urgent stakes and the timeless clash of civilization and savagery. The cover, a striking collaboration by Marie Severin, John Romita, and Mike Esposito, captures the perilous journey ahead.
