Congo Bill #5

Congo Bill and young Janu find themselves caught between two massive elephants on this vivid 1955 DC cover, with Bill shouting a urgent warning — "Bombo is no longer your friend!" — as he pulls the Jungle Boy to safety from the rampaging tusker. Nick Cardy's cover art delivers real tension, the looming gray giants filling the frame as the two heroes scramble through the dust. Featuring the story "The Return of Prince Padhan!", this is a fine slice of mid-fifties jungle adventure from one of DC's most appealing series.
