In "The Men of Monga," Tarzan ventures into the mysterious Valley of Monsters while exploring the lost world of Pal-ul-don, where he rescues Ro-Mee-Lah, the sister of his ally Jo-Rah, from the strange, crooked-legged inhabitants of Monga. With Jo-Rah’s help, Tarzan is given a mysterious dyal to aid his journey through the perilous valley.
In "The Elephants of Athne," Tarzan arrives in the mysterious city of New Athne only to find two archaeologists imprisoned by Prince Ergon, who demands a rifle and a safari car as ransom. When Tarzan returns with the goods, he’s met with an unexpected twist: the captives aren’t eager to be freed—they’ve fallen under the spell of the city and wish to stay and continue their studies.
In "Tarzan Faces Death on the Desert," Tom Culver’s quest to find the lost Maypools leads him to Nairobi, where he meets Dr. MacWhirtle—a man who knows more than he lets on. With MacWhirtle’s help, Culver tracks the missing family to the distant city of New Athne, only to be captured by its enigmatic inhabitants. When the danger escalates, Tarzan answers the call, venturing into the heart of the desert to confront the threat and save those in peril.
In "Tarzan on the Trail of the Leopard Men," Tarzan answers the desperate call of his friend Buto, who seeks help to rescue his younger sister, Nee-Issa, from a hidden leopard cult deep in the jungle. With the mighty Tantor at his side, Tarzan follows a trail of danger and ancient secrets, facing the cult’s fierce rituals and the treacherous heart of their hidden village.
In "The Stork Men," Tarzan teams up with Dr. Mervin to transform a pair of river otters using a growth formula, hoping their enhanced size and strength will help protect the Stork Men’s village from the threat of the Terribs. The story unfolds in the heart of the jungle, where unlikely allies must rise to defend a fragile community.
