Nyoka the Jungle Girl #14

When Nyoka visits Trader Tom's trading post to inquire about the price of a shirt, she's shocked to discover his markup—and launches a comedic complaint about everything being overpriced in the area. Tom's deadpan responses only fuel her frustration in this one-page humor bit from 1947.

Boyscout Bob offers young Mr. Willis some straightforward advice on giving a speech—stand up, speak up, and shut up—in this lighthearted half-page story. It's a quick, punchy bit of humor that captures the no-nonsense wisdom of a helpful Boy Scout.

Nyoka rushes back to the tribal village with medicine for the Lajos disease, but the witch doctor—determined to protect his authority—stands in her way, convinced that outside help threatens his position as healer. When Chief Poti questions whether the cure is genuine or poison, Nyoka proves her good faith in a dramatic way, even as the witch doctor schemes to ensure her gambit ends in tragedy.

Lion-hearted Leo's reputation as a fearless animal trainer gets put to the test when the circus ringmaster orders him into the woods to capture a live bear—no rifle, no backup, just raw nerve. What should be a career-ending disaster becomes something altogether different when Leo's trembling terror and a fortunate tumble conspire in the most hilariously unlikely way. It's a wild romp through the jungle as only a 1947 humor comic can deliver it.

Nyoka must prove that the witch doctor's mysterious medicine is safe before he can administer it to the tribe's sick natives—but his scheme to poison her nearly claims Chief Poti instead. When the witch doctor kidnaps Nyoka to silence her, she must use her wits to escape his clutches and a prowling black panther before she can finally deliver the cure that could save everyone.
