"A Long Chance" presents a pivotal chapter in the legend of Tarzan, drawn with masterful detail by Burne Hogarth, whose dynamic art brings to life the wilds of Africa and the extraordinary upbringing of the boy raised by apes. From the moment infant Tarzan is adopted by the great ape Kala after his parents' tragic demise, his sharp mind sets him apart—leading him to uncover his parents’ abandoned cabin, learn to read, and wield a hunting knife in a desperate fight for survival against the savage Bolgani. The story, written by Edgar Rice Burroughs and Robert M. Hodes, is illustrated in full by Hogarth, with the cover also by the legendary artist.

In the heart of the African jungle, an orphaned infant named John Clayton—later known as Tarzan—is raised by the great ape Kala after his parents perish. As he grows, his sharp mind sets him apart from the Great Apes, leading him to uncover his parents’ abandoned cabin and teach himself to read, while also facing deadly threats like the savage Bolgani.
