There’s some surprises that come out of nowhere, and all the familiar story beats are there. Looks like Dynamite has hit yet another home run with this licensed property.
-
Fans of Tarzan might want to pick up the first issue given its $1 cover price but I’m not sure there’s enough for any but true die hard Tarzan fans to entice you to come back next month and pick up issue #2 for four times the price.
-
Lord of the Jungle is worth the investment for the art alone, making the solid story an extra treat.
-
Lord of the Jungle #1 continues Dynamite’s adaptation success, and for a dollar, there’s no reason you shouldn’t pick this issue up.
-
There are so many interesting and new ways to have this iconic character exist in comics; I’m befuddled by Dynamite’s decision to use the most well-worn and repeated version.
-
Dynamite has secured another legend for its catalog, and for only a buck, you can’t go wrong to give this a look.
-
Seriously, if you’re going to go to all that trouble of adapting the first 20 pages of a novel, then most of us would’ve probably just been better off reading that.
