“Tarzan and the Ostrich Clan”

Beneath the waves, Tarzan grapples with a massive shark in this striking 1954 Dell issue — Morris Gollub's cover painting captures the Lord of the Jungle in raw, muscular struggle, his hands locked around the predator's jaws amid seaweed, scattered fish, and rocky ocean floor. It's a vivid reminder that Tarzan's dominion extends far beyond the treetops. Inside, Gaylord Du Bois and Jesse Marsh bring Edgar Rice Burroughs' hero to life across a generous 52 pages of adventure.
