Tarzan

In the mid-1960s, Finnish publisher Sarjakustannus Oy brought Edgar Rice Burroughs’ Lord of the Jungle to local newsstands with this 32-issue series. The strip ran from 1964 to 1968, offering a direct, action-focused take on Tarzan’s wild adventures, stripped of the dated trappings of earlier American comics. While no single creative team dominates the run, the series stands as a key example of how European publishers repackaged and popularized American pulp icons for a new audience. Its concise, 32-issue lifespan makes it a compact but significant artifact of international comics publishing.
