Jumbo Comics #97

Jumbo Comics #97 from Fiction House's 1947 lineup puts Sheena, Jungle Queen, front and center in all her fierce glory — blonde hair flying, knife in hand, she leaps above a surging crowd of menacing figures while a dark-haired woman holds a flaming torch nearby amid the jungle chaos. The cover story, "Banshee Wail of the Undead," promises something delightfully eerie to go along with the action-packed visual, with additional features like Ghost Gallery and The Hawk rounding out the package. Robert Webb's linework brings a kinetic, pulpy energy to the scene that captures exactly what made Fiction House's adventure titles so compelling in 1947.
