Tarzan #5

Marvel's 1977 adaptation of Edgar Rice Burroughs' jungle lord hits a fever pitch with this issue, subtitled "Vengeance! Cries the Priestess!" Cover pencils by John Buscema and inks by Pablo Marcos deliver a visceral scene of Tarzan locked in fierce combat with a great ape, knife in hand, while the commanding priestess La looks on from the background, gesturing imperiously — her dialogue balloon making the stakes crystal clear: yield or die. With sacred apes swarming the foreground and La's regal presence looming over the struggle, this is a cover that captures the savage grandeur Burroughs fans have always loved about these jungle adventures.
