TV Mundial #144
In "Las tres pruebas de Toka," the 1969 issue of TV Mundial #144, a determined Toka defies the counsel of Balsa Cuzco and turns to Inti for vengeance—only to face the devastating power of nature when a volcano erupts, threatening both jungle and village. As torrential rains bring what Toka could not, he returns to find Mulugru claiming credit for stopping the lava, prompting a sharp rebuke and a warning to the villagers about deception. Written by Joe Gill and illustrated by Frank Springer—whose dynamic pencils and inks define the cover and interior—this tale blends myth and consequence in a story grounded in consequence and quiet revelation.
