In "The Beasts of Tarzan," Tarzan’s son, Boy, sets out to rescue Dombie, the runaway grandson of Chief Muviro, after tracking him to a village ruled by the enigmatic Chief Kisumu. Under the guise of a ghostly lion spirit named Makuru, the witch doctor Kururi tries to scare Boy away, but the boy’s courage and the timely arrival of Tarzan’s loyal lion Jad-Bal-Ja turn the tide. Written by Gaylord Du Bois and illustrated by Jesse Marsh, this 1971 adventure blends jungle peril with a quiet determination, all captured in bold, dynamic art.
