Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs for July 29, 2020

More Bolangi delicacies will be on today’s menu…….Yum-Yum. Bolangi Lives Matter!

There goes another endangered species that Tarzan will add to his growing “300 Spartans” wall of carnage.

Now, Tarzan. Remember that these monkeys saved you and gave you a life. At least don’t kill these poor c…. Dang. Too late.

All thanks to the great pygmies who didn’t bother to take away his knife when imprisoning him once again.

“Hey, here comes a white guy with an unsheathed knife. So what can I do? I have to attack to defend myself don’t I”thus spoke the almost-dead giant

After Numa, the Lion, Tarzan seems to prefer the slaying of Bolgani, foes to his own beloved Mangani.

So, die, slavish prole to the Pygmy oppressors! Taste of Father’s Magic Knife!

Yes, Bolgani are not of his tribe, a lesser species to be killed when needed. Blood will flow while the Moon is high.

So if the gorilla pretty much runs loose, how do the pygmies keep it in check?

it turns out to be an old friend

So the gorilla hid behind a couple of wood posts? Wow!

Koko was just hoping to meet another signing primate… ;-)

Gorilla stew for breakfast! Cooks up!

Drew his knife? They threw him in the dungeon with a knife?

The pygmies never take his knife. Stupid.

Should have done the Bugs Bunny thing where the gorilla follows behind him. “Eh, watcha looking for doc?”

Tarzan: Be verwy verwy quiet, I’m hunting Bolangi."

What excellent use of blacks and whites in this strip! John Celardo was so good!

has to be a friend

The sneaky gorilla rose from his hiding place. Also known as his bedroom of the last fourteen years.

Tarzan speaks ape lingo, maybe it’s someone he knows!

It would really jazz this story up if the gorilla helps Tarzan and Biggins escape.
