In "Code of Honor!", Wally Wood crafts a gripping tale of perseverance and obsession as hunter Ackeley faces the brutal wilderness of darkest Africa, enduring a terrifying encounter with a monstrous bull elephant. With stark art by Wally Wood and Tatjana Wood, and dynamic inks by Wood himself, the story captures the raw danger and personal cost of chasing dreams in the wild. The cover by Jack Davis adds a bold, cinematic flair to this 1955 EC classic, a 10-cent testament to the era’s bold storytelling.

When former big game hunter McBan is hired to lead a safari for a movie crew, his carefully laid plans unravel when the film director, Merrill Quantock, lets an educated Kikuyu named Limuru choose the crew.

Carl Akeley’s relentless pursuit of Africa’s wildest beasts takes him deep into the untamed wilds, where a terrifying bull elephant leaves him gravely wounded.
