The information available at www.erbzine.com & other sources regarding number of the panels had confused me. Thanks to  Col. Worobu this problem was solved.

  1. Prabhat,
    One thing I should say,when u post some new,unseen strips,u do in a special style...hats off for that!! :-)

    Now,for Tarzan,I WILL OF COURSE D/L "all 15" only because these are b/w original strip AS in my childhood,it wasn't Phantom/Mandrake but Trazan who was my first Wesrern hero,whose strips i used to read,quite religiously,from some local newspaper.....Later I became hooked in IJC-Universe and all ,but First love always remains special for all and so for me!! :F

    Another thing,while I'm so fond of b/w strips,I am not much in Tarzan's book-format,allthough have some in collection!!

  2. Me the second to post- waiting for all tarzans!

  3. Thanks for sharing this gem, Prabhat Bhai. I love those old style comic strips, especially the ones which featured these classical characters, which weren't given their due credit in the comics form. I guess Tarzan was more suited for the daily strip than the later.

    By the way, the creator of this series which you have uploaded was Bob Lubbers, who worked on Tarzan strips for a brief time in 1950's, based on Edgar Rice Burrough's character and storyline.

    Here is some more information about Bob Lubbers and a complete list of all artists and creators for Tarzan Strips.

  4. Hi,

    thank you for your sharing as usual.

    I have to add that these (the first link, do not know for the others) strips are 600 pixels wide…

    They exists as 1,000 pixels wide, free, online there:

    http://comics.com/tarzan_classics/

    All strips available since 2000-01-01… [sundays included…]

    At last, one story is missing (from UFS web site too); its French name is La déesse blonde (Blond Goddess ?).

    Cheers,

    Emile

  6. @MaNdrAke dudE: Bala ji, I read first Tarzan comics very late, only after all favorite comics. However In childhood I didn’t like strips because of stretched printing. Only in 2007, I understood importance of these when find a lot of phantom stories printed as Indrajal Comics were heavily edited. Now love B/W more than colour and strips more than comics.

    ReplyDelete
  7. @Krishna ji: Lot of Tarzan comics are posted at http://comicsworld.wordpress.com/category/tarzan/ with Rapidshare links. These links contains many comics so size are big. However many are missing their. Soon I'll post with mediafire links (single - not multiple) and many missing too.

  13. Another fantastic post Prabhat - Thanks to Emily too....

    Tarzan was an acquired taste but now I really like it....

    I do not of you guys - I was unable to download 16, 18 & 24

    But my hands are full of comics to last me easily over the weekend. Thanks again.

    By the way, Rafiq sorry to hear about the Hard disk crash...hope you are able to recover all your important files. I had once such incident and I was able to extract most but many had some errors and it was a pain to rebuild it back.

    ReplyDelete
  14. @Old Man Mozz: Replaced the required links. Same about feeling about Tarzan.

    I was lucky in both times hard disk crash , was able to get back almost all files.

  15. Some of the Bob Lubbers strips were published in high quality comic book form in full color by the same European comic publisher who published this Russ Manning Strip (Deadly Ambush) posted by CW a few months ago:
    http://comic-guy.blogspot.com/2009/10/tarzan-with-heere-ka-chirag.html

    I actually owned "Insect Men", "Skull Clan" & "Terror of Kraka" released as comic book by this publisher in the 70's, along with some Manning stories as well, all in full color. I believe CW has acquired a good collection of these issues. I hope to see these scanned by him some day.

  16. OM Mozz, Emily is a girl's name whereas Emile is male :o)

    Thanks to Emile who painstakingly downloaded these strips panel by panel from the comic.com site! I was doing the same thing when Prabhat told me that I need not do this as Emile has already taken the pain of downloading all the strips.

  21. The Erbzine site has more than just these and have complete version of "The Romans".

    ReplyDelete
  22. @Colonel Worobu: OK.

    Check these 2 also:
    Single Series 020-Tarzan
    Young Tarzan

    I've all these.

    May be Emile has some more. He offered, but I requested to send the list later as I was busy.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Yep, I have "Young Tarzan", but not sure of "Single Series 020".

    I also have the dark horse Russ Manning story "Tarzan the untamed". Dark Horse is reprinting old classic Gold Key comics and DC comics as TPBs and graphic novels.
