☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeJumbo Comics #32 is an anthology featuring multiple stories: "Captives of the Gorilla-Men" stars Sheena, Queen of the Jungle, alongside the wild black stallion Midnight; "Bobby" follows two young boys who visit Bailey's Store after it's been robbed, with one boy fantasizing about becoming a detective like his uncle Ferdie, a house detective; "Inspector Dayton" by George Thatcher depicts the inspector going to sea to investigate a murder, where he encounters fishermen and discovers a sailfish on another boat's line; and additional short features include "Pee Wee" by S.M. Iger and "Uncle Otto" by Heck, both humorous strips involving misadventures with everyday situations.
When ghostly rumors of a skull-worshipping tribe begin threatening the jungle's friendly natives, Sheena and Bob Reynolds set out to track down the evil society—only to discover that sabotage and treachery are already working against them. Captured and separated, Sheena must fight her way through the cult's stronghold to save Bob from sacrifice on the altar of bones, using the warriors' own sacred fears against them. W. Morgan Thomas crafts a pulse-pounding jungle adventure that pits the Queen of the Jungle against dark rituals and a witch doctor's murderous ambitions.
Uncle Otto peddles an array of dubious products—brushes, soap, hair tonic, razor blades, and freckle remover—in this quick-witted slice of 1941 humor. It's a snappy bit of small-time hustle that captures the spirit of the era's street-corner salesmanship.
