Tarzan #16

Based on Edgar Rice Burroughs' immortal jungle lord, this 1997 Dark Horse issue brings "Tooth and Nail" Part Two of Two to a fierce conclusion. Mark Schultz's cover captures the action with raw, kinetic energy — Tarzan lunges from above, grappling with a knife-wielding adversary while a blonde woman and a snarling great ape tumble across crumbling stone ruins beneath a dramatic, cloud-streaked sky. With Kindzierski writing and Manoukian and Roucher handling interior art, this is pulp adventure rendered with genuine craft and muscle.
