Tarzan #18

Part two of the four-part "Tarzan vs. the Moon Men" arc delivers one of the more unsettling covers Dark Horse put out in 1998, with John Totleben's painted-style pencils and inks depicting a lone, crouching Tarzan — armed with a bow — dwarfed by a looming group of grotesque, spear-wielding Moon Men bearing wild, spiked hair and eerily elongated features. The sheer scale contrast between the jungle lord and his adversaries makes the odds feel genuinely daunting, hinting at the relentless pressure this four-part story is building toward. Timothy Truman, Thomas Yeates, and Al Williamson bring Edgar Rice Burroughs' pulp imagination to vivid life inside — a great chapter in this adaptation to have on your shelf.
