Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs for November 14, 2023

Weapons of “crass” destruction.

…. Capture … Escape … Capture … Escape … Capture … Escape … etc … etc …

Back door? Windows? Hatch to the roof? Stop and invite them in for breakfast?

Talking of which……

Oh joy. Here we goes again.

A charging elephant tops out at a speed slower than a human in shape. Tarzan’s ride wasn’t charging, and the guards were right behind the elephant yesterday… (Always a bad place to be, if you stop and think about it.) So, how did they get out of sight so fast?

Oh, it appears they didn’t get out of sight fast enough. Still, very convenient they just happened to jump off the elephant and into the armory.

Let’s be seasonal and take the chimney.

This is where Tarzan’s crack combat tactical abilities come to the fore, or Not.

Yes, if the armorer comes back, how would we defend ourselves after stealing and armoring ourselves?

“On and on, He just keeps on trying. And he smiles when he feels like crying. On and on, on and on, on and on”

A hurried escape and a fortunate find .

Panel 3: “Tarzan ruled…”. Oh? Where?

Another never-ending game of hide & seek………….

Too much (repetitive) action without a plot can be dull. I don’t remember Burroughs’ books being like this, but maybe they were. This would fit in with the awful modern movies that are just one explosion or car chase after another, without any particular story.

Open a door or window and hide. They will think you left.

Gone for three days, didn’t miss a thing! Yippee!
