Edgar Rice Burroughs' Tarzan #17

In "Tarzan and the Pygmy Princess," young Mabu faces a harrowing ordeal when he ventures into the jungle to gather honey and is captured by Somali slavers, only to be released after they interpret a solar eclipse as a sign of doom. Written by Elizabeth Beecher, this 1950 Dell comic follows Mabu’s tense journey home, where he confronts both the fear of impending disaster and the quiet wisdom of his father’s forgiveness. The cover by unknown artist captures the drama of the moment, a 10-cent adventure in the heart of the African wild.
