About the series
In the late 1960s, the Lebanese publisher Al-Matbouat Al-Mousawwara brought Edgar Rice Burroughs’ iconic jungle lord to Arabic readers with Tarazan Mojallad, a six-issue comic series. Each volume offered a self-contained Tarzan adventure, rendered in a style that blended classic adventure storytelling with local artistic sensibilities. While specific creators remain uncredited in the surviving records, the series stands as a notable example of regional comic publishing during a vibrant era for Arabic-language illustrated media. Its limited run captures a unique cross-cultural moment, making it a cherished artifact for collectors of Middle Eastern comics.
