About the series
In this short-lived 1970–1971 Marvel series, writer Stan Lee and a powerhouse trio of artists—John Romita, Gene Colan, and Jack Kirby—reintroduced Ka-Zar to the modern Marvel Universe. The three-issue run follows the jungle lord as he leaves the Savage Land for New York City, where his primal instincts clash with urban life alongside allies like Daredevil and Angel. It’s a curious, fast-paced experiment that bridges Ka-Zar’s pulp roots with the superhero dynamics of the era, showcasing Lee’s knack for fish-out-of-water storytelling.
