Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs for November 30, 2021

“Venomous” voyage.

A mountain base. Well I suppose that they need somewhere to store all that gas, not to mention repair material s, and stores as they’ll need supplies for making meals, like, oh. I don’t know, breakfast?

And if the entrance to the inner world is at a pole, what more natural place for a zeppelin base than Africa?

Takes a hefty bite from the Clayton accounts keeping a thing like at the ready with a crew tucked away.

Africa’s Mountains of the moon? You mean on earth? Or the moon? Iland how is you going to fly that big ballon into the earth’s or moon’s or whatever’s surface and go into the centre of the earth? Or is that moon now? WHAT ON EARTH, I SAY!

What emergency is Tarzan talking about? Another bad idea for a comic book story arc? Yes, I think this would certainly qualify.

Stop, time for a Dick Tracy exit, just jump out and go for a swim and find a lion to wrestle.

This is getting more like Flash Gordon, or Buck Rodgers….when will Ming the Merciless, or Killer Kane show up? UGH!

If you’re not up for this story, come back in 6 months.

Tarzan is in command of a military operation? The lieutenant called him ‘Tarzan’; is that a rank? If he’d called him ‘Lord Greystoke’, it might be a bit more believable.
