Edgar Rice Burroughs' Tarzan #18

Dell's 1950 adaptation of Edgar Rice Burroughs' jungle hero makes for a striking package, with this photo cover featuring Lex Barker as Tarzan — bow drawn and expression fixed with cool determination — surrounded by the floating heads of Africa's most formidable creatures: lion, tiger, buffalo, rhino, hyena, warthog, and more. It's a vivid reminder of the untamed world Tarzan navigates, and the array of animal portraits gives the whole cover an almost cinematic, larger-than-life energy. Inside, Jesse Marsh's artwork brings "Tarzan and the Valley of Mists" to life for a dime well spent.
