Synopsis
Fantagraphics resurrects a long-lost Tarzan-type comic from legends Gardner Fox and Frank Frazetta. Stranded in a lost prehistoric land after a plane crash, Roger Drum earns the name Thunda as he battles warring native clans and monstrous reptiles. In his following adventures, Thunda faces mammoth-riding monkey-men, greedy hunters, and uranium-hungry communists, and adopts a sabretooth tiger he calls…Sabre. All are illustrated by Frazetta with his usual wealth of exquisite detail. Although Frazetta did many comics early in his career, this is notable for being the only complete comic he drew from cover to cover. King of the Lost Lands; The Monsters from the Mists; When the Earth Shook; Gods of the Jungle. (All four stories are collected from Thunda King of the Congo #1, first published in 1952.
