☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free"Justin King of the Jungle" kicks off in Eerie #127 (1981) with a tense, atmospheric tale of a lone smuggler prowling the darkened docks at midnight, where every sound—like a distant click—feels like a threat. Written by Budd Lewis and brought to life with sharp, moody art by Howard Chaykin and Lee Elias, the story unfolds with a creeping dread that lingers long after the final page. The cover, a striking piece by Nestor Redondo, captures the eerie mood perfectly.
In the scorching heart of the African jungle, a lone figure moves through the shadows—Jo, a tracker with a quiet resolve, watches as poachers slaughter the wild with cold precision. Their greed carves a trail of death through the undergrowth, leaving only silence and suffering in its wake.
In the shadowed stillness of midnight on the wharf, Jo crouches in the dark, every breath loud in the silence. With the city asleep and the night a tight shroud, even the smallest sound—like that distant clicking—feels like a threat.
In a chilling twist of fate, Harry Houdini—legendary escape artist and self-proclaimed master of the mystic arts—encounters a being who defies all belief: Merlin. The ancient sorcerer’s power is unlike anything Houdini has ever known, and together, the two must face a malevolent force that threatens to unravel reality itself.
In the shadowed halls of a crumbling kingdom, Oly Haggarth walks a path paved with danger, driven not by divine favor but by a singular purpose: to bring down the tyrannical King Thall. With the Sacred Parchment’s cursed legacy whispering through the wind, Haggarth stands as the one man immune to its deadly power—his only weapon, a will unbroken by greed or fear.
