Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs for October 21, 2023

I hear the “PETA” patter of big paws suffering.

“I saw Tarzan do that.”

And another ones gone, and another ones gone, another one bites the dust.

Why, Tarzan has teach you well. Tarzan proud.

And the answer to yesterday’s first question is – Tarzan lost his monopoly on killing lions!

The answer to the second question is – 42.

The urge to start singing “The lion sleeps tonight” is just a whime away, a whime away, a whime away……..

Ah, memories of boar hunts in the Ozarks.

I thought he was a Kohrian. Now he’s a Rathorian.

Yeah, I dunno, man.

I never killed a lion (at least that I can remember. There was a period where I was drinking pretty hard), but this does not seem like a good idea.

Assuming the lion sticks itself in the spear, if you’re prepared to let go, the impact might break your wrists, since you’re not holding it firmly.

Of course, it’s even more likely that if you’re holding it limply, the spear won’t even pierce the lion.

If you are, you can’t let go in time, and it might be worse than a couple broken wrists.

This over-analyzation brought to you by Too Much Free Time, Inc. – Purveyors of Dumb Thoughts since Before Time Began.

Probably a better technique than Tarzan’s wrestling, bronc riding, stabbing method.

Tarzan’s monopoly on killing cats is over.

Lukah would have made a great hoplite, or Swiss pikeman.

Oooh! Tarzan’s going to be mad that someone muscled in on his lion-killing business.

What do you know?? that’s exactly the way I kill all of my lions.

Big cat deaths are probably now in double digits.

Well played, Lukah. But you’ve up-staged the Hero of the strip, and that won’t sit well….
