Tarzan #1
This first volume of Soleil's 2004 Tarzan series collects the opening chapters of Edgar Rice Burroughs' classic jungle saga, adapted into French bande dessinée format. It follows the young Lord Greystoke, raised by apes in the African wilds, as he encounters the first humans to cross his path—including Jane Clayton and Professor Porter—while contending with the savage ape Terkoz and the treacherous Achmet Zek. The story establishes Tarzan's dual heritage and his struggle between the civilized world and his primal instincts, featuring key characters like Kala, Kerchak, and the priestess La of Opar.
In "La route d'Opar !", Tarzan leads Werper through the jungle toward the lost city of Opar, where he reveals to Jane that their fortune has vanished and a dangerous journey awaits. Flashbacks to Lord John Clayton and Lady Alice Rutherford Clayton hint at a forgotten past tied to the mysterious ruins, while the weight of legacy and survival drives the quest forward.
