Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs for August 21, 2020

he’ll be eaten in no time, it’sa jungle out there.

“Let him go. He’s headed to the pit we dug up a bit ahead.”

See? Smoking kills.

Aw, Tarzan’s getting all touchy feely again.

Meanwhile, Big Jimmim is wondering why they didn’t just knock the guards aside and escape…

Tarzan: Forget him. I’ll be twice the lover he was.

He must have the extra capacity magazine on that thing. And the guards at the gates never threw their spears at him while he was firing in the other direction?

They can’t do anything right these pygmees now can they. Even a spear on such a short distance misses Kulp (pygmee defends himself: “Oh, that’s right, I’m overdue for practice”).

A man might have a smoking jacket, or smoking slippers, but this is the first time I’ve heard of a smoking pistol. Would he use it to light up his smoke? That Kulp guy…he’s quick with a joke or a light of your smoke, but there’s some place that he’d rather be (Apologies to Billy Joel).

Such a lame ending to such a lame story line which could have been a lot more exciting. It appears Biggim looks a lot less monkeyish than he did when this lurid tale first began….maybe it’s the water? Monkey-faces Matter!

Think what damage Kulp could do if he also had his drinking pistol!

Jim Biggim was called away by a biological emergency and his role will now be played by Ronald Reagan.
