#266. Russ Manning's Tarzan Daily Strips (Complete collection))

In 1967 he was chosen by Robert Hodes of ERB, Inc. to do the daily and SundayTarzan strips for United Feature Syndicate. The strips had drifted far from the Burroughs vision and Russ was committed to bring the strip much closer to the style of the original Tarzan novels. Each week he wrote and illustrated -- with the assistance of artist Bill Stout -- the large colour Sunday page and six daily strips. His illustration and writing abilities brought a quality and accuracy to the strip that had not been seen since the days of Foster and Hogarth in the '30s and '40s.

Yesterday I found following strips posted at one of my favorite forum by  Satanius. Many Thanks to Marsupilami for gathering and scanning these strips. Jaklar has compiled them into 6 comic-sized volumes. All credits to these guys only.
