Kamandi, the Last Boy on Earth #34

Kamandi faces overwhelming odds on this October 1975 cover, penciled and inked by Joe Kubert, as the blond Last Boy on Earth looms large in the foreground while a regiment of armed, uniformed tiger soldiers levels their weapons at him — with the battle cry "Kill the Animal — Before He Kills Us!" making the stakes crystal clear. The "Tiger War!" banner and "Big Action Issue!" badge promise that Jack Kirby's writing and art, inked by D. Bruce Berry, deliver exactly the kind of kinetic adventure the cover advertises. If you're drawn to post-apocalyptic action featuring humanity's last young survivor pitted against an army of anthropomorphic big cats, this one's hard to pass up.
