The lead story, "Kaänga, Jungle Lord: Killer Plague," follows Kaänga as he hunts down a slaughter-master responsible for a deadly plague across the jungle. The issue also includes new adventures of Wambi the Jungle Boy, Camilla (Africa's White Queen), Captain Thunder and the Congo Lancers, and Simba the Mighty King of Beasts, along with several other stories.
Kaänga and his mate Ann investigate a gruesome slaughter scene in the jungle—dead pygmies, antelope, and lions—and learn from N'geeso that a band of poachers has invaded their territory, killing all beasts and people indiscriminately. When an arrow meant for Ann reveals the hunters are after them alive, Kaänga and Ann must evade a savage ambush and uncover the sinister purpose behind the wholesale slaughter before the madness consuming their jungle claims more victims.
Fantomah must stop a mysterious plague of scorpions terrorizing her kingdom of Khefra—only to discover the high priest of Kta, leader of a dangerous new cult, is orchestrating the attacks to force her people into worship. As Fantomah and her companions are trapped and tested by the very weapons the cult wields, she must use cunning and strength to dismantle the Scorpion Cult before its sinister influence takes root.
In "null," Terry rushes to save a besieged outpost only to fall into a Bedouin trap, leading to his capture and a daring rescue by Andy and the gang—just as the desert heat begins to rise and the stakes grow high.
In the heart of the jungle, Jo finds herself caught in a web of secrets when she and attorney Jim Rodney journey into the wild to uncover the truth about her uncle—Camilla’s father. When Jo is kidnapped by a shadowy European criminal, Camilla steps in, aided by the mysterious Obongos, to bring her home.
