Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs for November 07, 2024

The “reciprocity” train barreled through the staton unabated.

Cat got your tongue, Nemone?

Panel 2: as Tarzan prepares to jump on Belthar’s back and kill him, he leafs through the book: “Hmm… that’s not how the story continues… I’ll wait a bit till someone arrives to save the day (and me)… no spoilers.”

Panel 4: Tarzan scowls, because this is not how the story continues either! He decides to wait to the next daily strip before emailing a complaint to the illustrator.

Oh, sure. “Before Tarzan could intervene”, right. How convenient.

The guy that leaps into the back of any animal in a split second whenever one of his friends is in danger, suddenly and temporarily lost his reflexes.

We see what you’re doing, T-zan.

And the score is. Lion 1. Crazy Bee-atch Queen zip.

Wow. I was close. With her love of lions, It gives new meaning to necking.

The phrase “hoisted on his own petard” comes to mind. Except she isn’t a he.

wow, did not see that coming

She should have known better . Still, have a crazed lion on the loose though.

That’s a surprising twist. Eliminate the spurned queen.

Well, ah! Tarzan has a knife and the Queen had a tongue, like a 2 edge sword, so the lion took out the tongue.

Sheesh . . . . what a way to go .,

Died when she hit the ground? Kind of anti-climatic. The least the writer could have done was have the lion rip her to shreds.

Amazing turn of events!
