"Ka'anga, Jungle Lord" in "Curse of the Blood Madness" depicts Ka'anga and a woman with red hair encountering a sick man and a mysterious illness spread by a Gwarali dog, leading to a desperate search for a cure. Another story features a warrior in red and yellow armor leading forces in combat, challenging an opponent to single combat and engaging in pitched battles with armed soldiers. The issue also includes educational text material on African geography and exploration, covering the history of Arab and European colonial ventures along the African coast from the medieval period through the seventeenth century.
When a sinister witch doctor named N'gali poisons Kaänga's companion Ann Mason with a mysterious brew, she falls under his hypnotic control—forcing the Jungle Lord to track her through deadly territory while N'gali uses her presence to rally followers and threaten neighboring villages with enslaved elephants. As N'gali's power grows and his plans to conquer the Damba'llah village unfold, Kaänga must find a way to break the curse before Ann becomes a pawn in the witch doctor's conquest of the jungle.
In this African wildlife primer, Norman Leslie explores the hunting prowess, temperament, and curious traits of the great cats and their cousins—from the swiftly leaping lynx to the easily tamed cheetah, and the peculiar fossa of Madagascar with its voiceless nature. You'll discover surprising truths about leopards, lions, and the lesser-known felines that roam the continent, revealing why certain species have earned their fearsome (or docile) reputations.
