Tarzan #3

Dark Horse's 1996 adaptation of Edgar Rice Burroughs' jungle lord reaches its third chapter with a striking Arthur Suydam cover that puts Tarzan front and center, bare-backed and knife in hand, standing his ground against an overwhelming menace. Behind him looms a massive elephant flanked by a horde of big cats and apes, while at his feet a great coiled serpent rears up with spread wings — a gauntlet of wild adversaries rendered in Suydam's moody, painterly style. With Bruce Jones writing and Thomas Yeates inking Christopher Schenck's interior art, "Tarzan's Jungle Fury Part Three" promises the kind of pulp-adventure tension that made Burroughs' creation an enduring force in storytelling.
