Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs for May 13, 2024

Tarzan’s version of the “Prolympics”.

Yeah, this is almost the Tarzan who terrorized the Germans in WW1 in Tarzan the Untamed. Then he would have thrown a living German into the lion’s jaws. (Actually, he did put one in a trap with a hungry lion.) Of course, he had a lot of prior practice terrorizing the tribe that killed his ape mother.

With the free meal in his mouth, The lion (mistaking the “Galla” for a female) was glad he ate ’er……

(OK. It was torturous and inspired by the stranger’s armour. But it’s just gone 7am, and I’ve not had breakfast yet……).

Gee how Galla’nt of you Tarzan!

Well at least he not kill numa this time.

And Galla was divided into three parts.

Excedrin headache #324. Waking up after being knocked unconscious by a musket butt.

Now you have Tarzan mad, weapon time!

Another lifeless guy. Should have done the paperwork first. Later Tarzan discovers he has rescued a crazed serial killer who thinks he is a Roman from local law enforcement.

Man that guy who was sleeping on the sentry job really has been abused, killed and then mauled. Tarzan must really dislike the Galla.

Tarzan was never concerned by Numa’s charge. The ape-man remembered the old jungle law: Numa is easily distracted by kitty snacks.

The unconscious Galla must have died in the air to be caught as the life-less Galla…

I wonder if this word “Galla” is where the word “Gullah” came from.

Eat Galla Numa! It looks as though that Roman is wondering “What have I gotten myself into?”.

Tarzan… didn’t kill the lion? What is happening? What is happening?
