In "The Big Game Hunters!", treasure hunters capture Abdola and torture him to learn the location of Tiger Girl’s hidden temple, but he holds firm. When they drug one of her tigers and follow it back, they stumble into the sacred site—only to meet their end when Tiger Girl triggers the idol of Kahiva to fall upon them. A gripping tale from 1953, written by Allan O'Hara and illustrated by Matt Baker, whose bold artwork brings the jungle’s danger to life.
