Princess Pantha


In the next-to-last entry in our Pappy's Jungle Girls week we switch from Africa to Hawaii. Princess Pantha, lush jungle femme, was featured in Nedor's Thrilling Comics, which was once the home of superheroes, but after the war diversified into the realm of jungle cheesecake. I love the line on the cover, "Featuring Princess Pantha--Queen of the Jungle." Uhhhh, guys, she's either a princess or a queen...she can't be both.

The cover, by Alex Schomburg, is one of his usual superb illustration jobs, although it appears he has relocated Pantha to India.

There is an emotional component to this story, "The Jungle of Despair," from Thrilling Comics #71, 1948, that we usually don't see in this sort of comic. The loss of a child and the aftermath of grief is surprising, but this is a comic book, so the action comes first. The artwork is by Artie Saaf, who did an excellent job.

Chuck Wells at Comic Book Catacombs is also showing jungle girls this week. You can find them here.

"Rama, the Legend," a full-length graphic novel published by Arcana Comics, has the following words on its back cover: "Ramayana is not just a literary monument, it is held in such reverence that the mere reading or hearing of it can set individuals free from sin and grant every desire to the reader or hearer."

Nimba is no bimba!


This is day four of Pappy's Jungle Girl week. Safari Cary, and Nimba, yet another in a long list of jungle goddesses, were featured in Fox Features' Dagar Desert Hawk, this particular story from #15, in 1948. Fox published some interesting comics in the late 1940s, a lot of them featuring very sexy girls, several featuring jungle girls.

Chuck Wells of the Comic Book Catacombs blog has shown several scans of Fox's most famous jungle girl, Rulah. He's also showing jungle gals this week.

I don't recognize the signature on this story, but it could be a pseudonym. The artwork isn't familiar to me but it's outstanding. The artist did both Dagar stories and Safari Cary.

As a bonus, I'm including another story from Dagar #15, a 4-page story starring yet another obscure jungle babe, Tangi. It's drawn by the one and only Jack Kamen. Some of the dialogue in this story sounds racy, as when the giant exclaims, "Honor her with the golden spear! Thrust it deep and true!" On the next page the giant shouts, "The very earth moves!" Well, that kind of writing moves me, too.












TOMORROW: Princess Pantha!

Camilla is a thrilla


This is day three of Pappy's Jungle Girl week. Are these chicks swingers, or what?

Camilla is from Fiction House's Jungle Comics, one of the secondary characters to Ka'a'nga, a Tarzan-type, who was the book's star. She actually had an intriguing start, based on H. Rider Haggard's Ayesha (She), but eventually Camilla settled in to being yet another jungle queen. Camilla had several artists, but I've chosen a story by Fran Hopper, one of the fantastic female cartoonists of the 1940s.

Chuck Wells is also showing jungle girls this week at his Comic Book Catacombs blog.

This story is from Jungle Comics #70, 1945.
