Jungle Fantasy

From 2003 onward, Avatar Press unleashed Jungle Fantasy, a six-issue series that plunges into a savage, primordial world of lush danger and primal conflict. Most closely associated with writers Robert Lugibihl and Sean Shaw, and brought to visceral life by artists Di Amorim, Juan José Ryp, and Shaw himself, the series is a raw, adult-oriented adventure that stands out for its unflinching, painted-style visuals and survival-of-the-fittest ethos. It matters as a bold, creator-driven pulp revival that pushed the boundaries of mature fantasy comics.
