Nyoka the Jungle Girl #69

Fawcett's long-running jungle adventure series puts its capable heroine front and center on this July 1952 cover, showing Nyoka in her signature khaki-and-red field uniform, one hand raised and the other at her chin, against a tropical backdrop of palm trees and canoes. The banner across the bottom promises "Jungle Horror!" along with a complete serial of daring adventure — specifically the opening chapter, "The World's Greatest Hypnotist," written by Rod Reed with art by Bert Whitman. For fans of pulp-flavored adventure heroines, this is a confident, charming snapshot of Nyoka at her most resourceful.
