In "Ten Tusks of Zulu Ivory," young Wambi faces a test of friendship and trust when his jealousy over a rescued lion cub leads him to prank his jungle companions—until a dangerous fall into a hunter’s tiger trap leaves him in peril, and only the monkeys, who witnessed his plight, come to his aid. Written by Roy L. Smith and illustrated by Frank Doyle, this 1948 adventure from Jungle Comics #98 captures the spirit of classic pulp action, with dynamic art and a tense, character-driven story. The cover by John Celardo perfectly captures the wild, high-stakes mood of the tale.
