The half-dead American raved of an unknown city... of women warriors ruled by a malignant wizard...of a great diamond, the Gonfal, with strange hypnotic power... of a long-lost English nobleman... of the savage queen who had betrayed her duty and helped him to escape. Tarzan puts little faith into Stanley Wood's story-until he sees the power of the Gonfal draw the American in spite of himself back into the clutches of the Amazons of Kaji. Then it is that the ape-man becomes once more the implacable hunter-for though he cares nothing for diamonds or lost civilizations, no one may be allowed to harm a man the Lord of the Jungle has taken under his protection.

When an American bomber crashes in the jungles of enemy-held Sumatra, the survivors face the perils of a completely unknown world... and the RAF colonel who flew with them as observer only seems to compound their danger by going mad-stripping to a loincloth and throwing away his weapons except for his knife. But for Colonel John Clayton, Lord Greystoke, the hazards of wild beasts and a remorseless enemy are a familiar and joyously accepted challenge-a chance to return to his true identity of Tarzan of the Apes. Gathering a motley crew of allies of many nations, Tarzan works a terrible vengeance on the occupying Japanese and leads an epic trek to the coast-to a final ocean rendezvous with enemies human and inhuman.

The drums boom forth an incredible message from tribe to tribe-Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle, has become an enemy to all, stealing and enslaving their women... as well as the daughter of an English millionaire, who offers a princely reward for her recapture and Tarzan's death. Certainly her captor told Sandra Pickerall that he was Tarzan... but he also told her he was God... Tarzan follows their trail with one thought in mind-to pursue and destroy the man who has stolen his name and made it infamous in the jungle world he loves.

Stranded on an uncharted Pacific island, Tarzan is forced to take command of an ill-sorted party-English aristocrats, a Dutch officer, a woman of doubtful reputation-to ensure their safety from a band of mutineers led by a madman. A lost colony of Mayans, avid for potential victims for their barbarous human sacrifices, only add to their danger. But the Lord of the Jungle has unexpected allies... Cast away with his band is a shipment of African animals unknown to the island, striking terror in the hearts of the Mayans and mutineers alike-but old friends and familiar antagonists to the man brought up among them: Tarzan of the Apes. This special Edgar Rice Burroughs Authorized Library edition includes the first publication anywhere of 'Murder in the Jungle,' the original version of 'Tarzan and the Jungle Murders,' taken directly from Edgar Rice Burroughs' typescript before the story was heavily rewritten by a pulp magazine editor.

A new collection of portraits of cultural legends from the only cartoonist to have graced the covers of both New Yorker and Mad magazine, and seemingly everything in between. For years, acclaimed artist Drew Friedman has chronicled an oddball, alternate history of American pop culture, where forgotten character actors, old Jewish comedians, comic book artists, and liver-spotted elevator operators are afforded the spotlight over Hollywood starlets and heartthrobs. This latest collection showcases a wide range of recent color and black-and-white portraits of comedians (Gilbert Gottfried, Groucho Marx, Selma Diamond, Moms Mabley, Brother Theodore), writers (Kurt Vonnegut, Alan Zwiebel, Bruce Jay Friedman, Arnie Kogan), musicians (B.B. King, Bob Dylan, Al Kooper, Sammy Davis, Jr., Weird Al), directors (Buster Keaton, Elaine May, Terry Zwigoff), comic book legends (Max Gaines, Bill Gaines, Kelly Freas, Ron Turner), actors (Boris Karloff, Lon Chaney, Jr, Rondo Hatton, Peter Falk) and other famous, infamous, and not-so-famous human beings that Friedman has drawn inspiration from over his lifetime. In addition to over 100 full-page images, this collection features a foreword by historian of comedy Kliph Nesteroff, a glossary of brief biographical information on each subject by the author, as well as the never-before-collected eight-page comic strip, 'R. Crumb and Me,' detailing Friedman's intense relationship to the work of the cartoonist he cites as his greatest inspiration of all. Shtick Figures is a must have for fans of Friedman's inimitable talent and sharp curatorial eye for preserving lesser known but worthy tributaries of all aspects of American culture, high and low.
